System tray balloon not showing on vista

Asked by hccfsa in Windows Programming, Miscellaneous Security, Windows Vista

Tags: c#

Hi all,

I have a windows app that simply lauches a balloon in the system tray when another app calls it. The balloon app works fine when it runs alone or is called from command line. Now I have a windows service that uses Process to launch this balloon app. The service is running under local system account with interactive with desktop turned on. This set up works on my XP machine, but not on Vista. On Vista, my service logs the launching of the balloon app and I can see the balloon process in task manager, but I don't see the balloon. I'm thinking it's security related. Any thoughts? Thanks.Start Free Trial
