    System tray icons are getting duplicated, why & how to fix it?


    Hi,
    There are some icons in my Windows system tray getting duplicated and the duplicated ones go away once I pass the cursor over them.



    Is it a behavior of some kind of virus, a Windows bug or something else? It drives me crazy on how they happened! I really wanna help on this, thank you in advance.
