Have the strangest problem, the NotifyIcon component will not "popup" its notifications under Windows 7. I even went into notification settings and explicitly told windows to always show all the icons and notifications, still nothing.
To make sure I wasn't going insane I copied the program to a Windows XP box and the notification icon worked as expected.
No to be defeated, I loaded up the registry on the windows 7 box, found the notification key "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\EnableBalloonTips" changed the value from 0 to 1 and still nothing.
Has anyone else seen this problem.
