is this intentional or a bug? cant close scanner tray icon presumably due to warning notification?

[klepp0906]

after just getting all three of the stablebit softwares installed im doing a lot of digging/learning my way around.  im doing so while transfering lots of TB in preparation of setting up drivepool.

one drive that im hammering right now is on the floor in a sabrent dock.  its also a non helium filled 10TB that seagate is now stuffing in its expansions but it runs very hot compared to the old helium filled barracuda pros. 

I got a warning from scanner that it was overheating (mid 50's) and while i can appreciate the feature, it seems that every time i try to exit the tray application (or even click on it, i just get the windows notification from scanner.  over and over and over as many times as i feel like clicking ill get the overheat notification.   What it doesnt give me is a right click/exit scanner or close scanner option.

well, StableBit Scanner doesn't run from the system tray, so there isn't really an option to "exit" it.  

However, if you open up the notification in StableBit Scanner, it should have an option to ignore it. 

Barring that, you can change some of the settings here: https://stablebit.com/Support/Scanner/2.X/Manual?Section=Heat

Changing the threshold to 10C may help, for instance (instead of the default of 10C)

ah so thats not the actual application in the tray, its the warning notification that wont go away i guess until something is done about it.  (still transferring lol)

Yeah, the notification will remain until it's resolved. 

 

If you really, really must kill the notifcations, you an disable the notification.exe process.  I don't recommend it, because you may (will) miss important notifications.
