Shutdown SWRemote

Post by Richard Naninck »

Task and/or Script option to cleanly shutdown the SWRemote.

I kill the SWRemote every night and restart it to preserve agility. For some reason (still unknown) the SWRemote becomes slower over time. I kill the SWRemote using Windows PowerShell but it leaves the small swremote icon visible in the system tray until I "mouse over" it. A clean kill of the swremote would clean up the icon as well.

My current workaround could be to maximize the swremote first and then kill it. This will also clean up the tray icon.

When typing the previous post yesterday the workaroud I discribed seemed like a good one. However now it turns out that the script command "RestoreRemote" doesn't clear the tray icon either whereas clicking the tray icon to restore the remote does.

Not sure if that even qualifies as a small bug but I guess the tray icon should have the same behaviour for all types of restoring the remote.
