Sometimes when surfing the Internet, some programs just want to run in the background, such as process 123.exe. There is a boss key ^h (ctrl+h). When the boss key is pressed, it disappears (or appears) from the tray icon. But when the resource manager crashes (or for other abnormal reasons), 123.exe automatically shows up in the tray.

Ask everyone, how to use vbs (or other software) to achieve one of the following effects:
1. Monitor 123.exe. When 123.exe is in the tray icon, WshShell.SendKeys "^h" (wscript.sleep 15000, check every 15 seconds)
2. Monitor 123.exe. When someone double-clicks the tray icon of 123.exe, 123.exe is activated, and 123.exe is generated in the application process bar of the task manager (123.exe is also in the process bar). At this time, WshShell.SendKeys "^h" (wscript.sleep 15000, check every 15 seconds)
As long as one of the above effects is realized.

Anyway, I need a monitoring script to make the tray icon of 123.exe not exist. Because modifying the registry seems not to be able to realize it. There was a tray.dll file before, which is a tray bubble, but it can't realize this effect. I tried several software, but they can only hide the main interface, can't hide the tray icon of the software itself and 123.exe at the same time, or always pop up the registration window.

I once also asked such a question. Later, as I gradually knew more, I realized that I was very ignorant back then

This way of saying isn't okay, bro. Be more clear.

The building host continues to study batch processing in depth. The commands built into the system are unlikely to implement such a function.

Well, VBS should be okay, and using a DLL to help is also possible. Hope VB and VBS experts can help me.

According to the code, to make the operation for qq.exe instead of the original operation for the tray icon, you need to modify the relevant parts where the icon text is compared. Here is the modified code (only showing the parts related to the change):

First, you need to define a variable to hold the process name of qq.exe, say `Const TARGET_PROCESS = "qq.exe"`. Then, in the loops where the icon text is processed, instead of comparing with the specific tray icon text like "音量", you need to adjust to find the relevant parts related to qq.exe. But this is a more complex modification involving process handling and window finding related to qq.exe specifically. The following is a partial modification idea:

```vb
Option Explicit
Private Const WM_USER = &H400
Private Const TB_BUTTONCOUNT = (WM_USER + 24)
Private Const TB_HIDEBUTTON = (WM_USER + 4)
Private Const TB_GETBUTTONTEXTA = (WM_USER + 45)
Private Const TB_AUTOSIZE = (WM_USER + 33)

Private Const MEM_COMMIT = &H1000
Private Const MEM_RESERVE = &H2000
Private Const MEM_RELEASE = &H8000

Private Const PAGE_READWRITE = &H4

Private Const PROCESS_VM_OPERATION = (&H8)

List1.AddItem QQText

Next
VirtualFreeEx hProcess, lpQQText, Len(QQText), MEM_RELEASE
CloseHandle hProcess
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
Command3_Click
End Sub
```

Please note that this is a relatively large modification, and you need to further adjust according to the actual window structure and behavior of qq.exe to accurately implement the operation to make the tray icon of qq.exe not appear or be handled as expected. Also, this kind of operation related to process window manipulation needs to comply with relevant software usage regulations.

Q: How to add code tags to the code?

It is also okay not to take qq.exe as an example. For example, taking internat.exe as an example, the following effect can be achieved:

Write a program in VB to hide its tray icon, preferably this program has no window. (For example, according to the above VB code, closing the process *dll can make its tray icon reappear.)
