I have some code below with an example.

Using –> $objNotifyIcon.Dispose

I wrote this code for PowerShell v1.0 and also some of my function names do not follow the correct verb-noun naming conventions.

########################
function ShowNotify_Icon([string]$msg)
{
$objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipIcon = ‘Info’
$objNotifyIcon.Icon = ‘D:\Create_Notify_Icon\graph.ico’
$objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipTitle = ‘Processing …’
$objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipText = $msg
$objNotifyIcon.Visible = $True
$objNotifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(9000)
Sleep(9)
}#ShowNotify_Icon

########################
function HideNotify_Icon([string]$msg)
{
$objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipText = $msg
$objNotifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(9000)
Sleep(9)
$objNotifyIcon.Visible = $false
}#HideNotify_Icon

########################
#Start Here : )
[void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName(“System.Windows.Forms”)
$objNotifyIcon = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon

ShowNotify_Icon(‘This operation is starting . . .’)

HideNotify_Icon(‘This operation has completed . . .’)

$objNotifyIcon.Dispose
#main
