Please see http://kb.stonegroup.co.uk/index.php?View=entry&EntryID=354 for more information.

There are two possible removal methods depending on the version of Intel driver you have installed.

New Method

Use the new method if you have registry entries under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Intel\Display\igfxcui\igfxtray\TrayIcon > ShowTracyIcon

This batch file / registry collection will set the following:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Intel\Display\igfxcui\HotKeys > Enable to 0
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Intel\Display\igfxcui\igfxtray > TrayIcon to 0


Manual Instructions

1. Double click on the registy file to install it

Deployed Instructions
---------------------
Options:
1. Use the registry entry information to set a Group Policy Preference item under User Settings. Put both registry preferences in.

2. Alternatively, use this batch file and registry entry as a user login script; however in most environments this is not recommended as Command Prompt access is often disabled.
