Add Notification Icon to System Tray

Joseph Jones

I think it would be great to have a Huntress icon or even better white label icon that allows our technicians and power users to see Huntress is actively running on the computer.

System Tray and Menu Bar Icons for EDR

Thomas Hall

We've had clients question the status of their protection after moving from more traditional EDR's as there is no icon in either the Menu Bar or System Tray to indicate or show a pop up that they are protected. I understand this is purely a cosmetic change but it would save a lot of headaches explaining that it is still working.

I second it should be optional

Alan Helbush

This setting should be optional; in my case, I would not turn it on for every client, but could see the use case for it.

This would be a great feature to add, simply to give our customers evidence that they're protected by Huntress. Doesn't need anything fancy, just a logo, comment and EDR version. We're nearly in 2026, would be nice to see this sooner rather than later.

Yes we need this please!

Brandon Feemster

I would like to see an icon, for sure. It'd be great if we could have the option in the admin panel to enable or disable the show icon feature.

Also would like to see this option added. Great value add for customers to understand there is some visual representation of further security other then the stock MS Defender.

Tony Fernandez

This would be great and sounds like it would be easy to implement

Jared Aylmore

Any update on this?
