In Windows 8.1, the taskbar is shared between all 3 of my monitors but the System Tray only shows up on my monitor that is noted as my "Main Display" in Screen Resolution settings.

Is there a way I can have the system tray show up on all of my monitors?

Edits: I noticed this guy asked a similar question about the clock, so I doubt I'll get any different answers. Display the taskbar clock on multiple screens in Windows?

    If its possible; It would require third-party software; What has your research shown? – Ramhound Oct 02 '14 at 13:32
  • I remember this used to be possible in Windows 8. Ideally, I would avoid 3rd party software, but it appears to be the only option.

  • You will indeed need third-party software. – aairey Oct 02 '14 at 13:55

I've been using Display fusion for a couple years now. It is well integrated with Windows 7/8/8.1 and adds many features that I didn't realise I wanted until I used them (e.g. window position snapping).

It even has the clock on the extended monitor.
