The VisualCron Tray Client is an application that is part of the VisualCron system since version 4.7.0.
Startup
The Tray Client starts when a user logs in to the Windows server. When the Tray Client starts it attempts to connect to the VisualCron Server in order to provide control, allow foreground execution and be able to notify the currently logged in user.
