For me, the systray is the stuff on the very right, just next to the clock. ("Unpliug or eject hardware", "language" ...) So isn't there a difference between Taskbar and systray? (As mentioned in the references, systray is a never used, but planned term, but i'd still call the most right stuff systray.) --[[User:Saippuakauppias|Saippuakauppias]] [[:de:Benutzer Diskussion:Saippuakauppias|⇄]] 23:45, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
 
To add to these confusion about systray vs notification area, here's the latest edition of Microsoft Writing Style Guide about systray and notification area: Systray [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/s/system-tray]
Notification area [https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/n/notification-area]
 
Compare these with the archived versions:
Systray [https://web.archive.org/web/20230116023717/https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/s/system-tray]
Notification area [https://web.archive.org/web/20230331105447/https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/n/notification-area]
 
From the comparisons, it seems like for Windows 11, Microsoft officially reverted back to the term systray: "In Windows 11, use to refer to the area on the taskbar where the clock and system notifications appear. In earlier versions of Windows, this UI element was referred to as the notification area". And also: "In Windows 8 and Windows 10, use to refer to the area on the taskbar where the clock and system notifications appear. In Windows 11, this UI element is referred to as the system tray"
