Run immediately by launching release/TouchDisableTray.exe.

For an installation that runs at startup:

• Hold Alt and drag TouchDisableTray.exe to create a shortcut.
• Press Windows Key + R to open run menu and enter shell:startup to open the startup folder
• Drag the shortcut you created into the startup folder

Acknowledgements

All credit to Kevin Anderson, this repo is simply to open the code to the github community.

This project uses the back-end from the WinDeviceManagerLight application. This made it much easier to use the back-end windows libraries for device management.

I will also acknowledge the tutorial for C#-based tray applications from Michael Sorens located at Redgate Hub. The Custom Application Context class is partially copied & modified from this.
