Ta bort den QuickTime symbolen från systemmagasinet
Det kör mig som är galet, när applikationer installerar sig in i systemmagasinet, utan att ge mig som ett primat under ställer in. QuickTime har ingen gott skäl att vara i systemmagasinet, men den är där på något sätt, efter du har installerat iTunes.
För att ta det bort är väljer allt som du måste att göra, rätt-att klicka på symbolen i systemmagasinet och ”Quicktime rangordnar” från menyn.
Klicka på den avancerade fliken.
Nära bottnen installerar uncheck checkboxen för ”den QuickTime symbolen i systemmagasin”,
Om du använder den Windows utsikten, ska du får detta meddelande när dig som var nära dialogfönstret.
Klicka precis ”denna kontrollbordet fungerar” knäppas korrekt, och symbolen bör vara den borta för evigt.

I can’t tell you how many times I have done this for other people.
Apple should have made it a lot easier for the average person to remove the icon.
Chris,
Same here… that’s what inspired this article. =)
That is in fact one of the few things I really hate Apple for, even though I normally love the company.
After every Quicktime/iTunes update the icon reappears and the user has to repeat the steps you described.
Sad story. Especially because the icon does not provide any useful function for the user.
Why bother?
Uninstalle Quicktime. Install Quicktime Alternative. iTunes and everything else can’t tell the difference, and frankly it seems to run more stable.
I have Vista. My “Quick Time Preference” selection is inactive (not highlighted) and useless. I don’t even have ITunes – whatever that is, but the icon just magically appeared. Is there another remedy? I want it gone along with the URGE nonsense that shouldn’t be there; it’s disabled; but that’s another story. If you can help me, a big thank you in advance. From a disgruntled Vista owner.
Thanks for publishing my previous query. Now I need help with HISTORY. It is set to “0 days to keep pages in history” but still shows. Is there a remedy? Thanks.
New issue with Quicktime – Quick Time Preference�? selection is inactive (not highlighted) and useless – When I open MSCONFIG and uncheck the qtask selections and then set for normal boot Apple’s virus re-installs itself. Do you have any suggestions as to how to remove it?
This is the attitude that makes it clear why Apple is for children and PC’s have 90% of the world computer market. How much more irresponsible can Apple be?
You should be able to remove it from the startup in the registry, I assume.
Apple’s software for Windows may not be stellar, but their own products are quite good.
To Pete’s MSCONFIG experience – Did the same and had success. Now I have the big balloon banner “Windows has blocked a startup program” in my face every startup and various other times. I’m going back to the tiny QuickTime icon! Now can some one please tell me how to access my Hotmail?
Don’t like Hotmail (my current Email is much better – no ads of any kind) but I just have to know why I can’t get it on my Vista. Thanks, Wayne
Apple’s quicktime for windows is decidedly less stable than the free Quicktime alternative. That and the alternative doesn’t repeatedly force itself into the startup and system tray. Apple appears to have deliberately made the software unstable to make windows look bad. Just say no.
I never had Quicktime or ITunes and I hav a new HP with Vista. Quicktime icon is in my startup and I can not get it off.
I have Vista & had to uninstall Quick Time. No big loss!
Is there a way of removing it from the system tray via a command line??
Have used your how to be before to remove QuickTime, but it has crept back in there. Now when I right click all options are greyed out except Exit and QuickTime Web Site.
Running Windows XP
Any solutions gretafully received.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you.
In trying to follow the instructions to remove QuickTime icon,when I right click on the icon,then on preferences the screen shown in the example is not what comes up on my computer.I have no tabs; only a screen showing QuickTime settings with a rolling screen showing copyrights such as QDesign and Qualcom and many more. What can I try now to get rid of this annoying icon?
Mary.
I had the same problem as You, my screen does noe have any tabs, but a dorpdown menu. From this choose [Browser-plugin] uncheck the checkbox infront of “QuickTime system tray icon” at the bottom.
i have 5.0.2 and there is no advanced setting to uncheck the icon in taskbar option. thx for tips to remove icon from taskbar.
