I checked some code I have, and note that to reappear in the tray after a
system crash you need to catch a new message in some window. Kind of useful
unless you are one of those people whose shell never crashes.

const UINT wm_TaskbarCreated = RegisterWindowMessage(_T("TaskbarCreated"));



When you catch it you have to destroy and recreate (or hide and show) the
tray item.
