You can try one of the old builds 5 years ago. They do the same thing. https://github.com/sandwichdoge/MinimizeToTray/releases/tag/v2.4

You can also just download AutoIt3 and run the source code directly. I included instructions in README.md

Vigorf.A and Winring0 have been being detected in many monitoring an utility programs over the last 6+ months. The more I read about this it seems tied to some older API code that MS has decided in no longer the safest and starting to actively protect against. CVE is from 2000, so pretty old at this point, but it's only as far as I've seen recently being identified by Defender.

WinRing0 driver has been classified as a known vulnerability as documented in CVE-2020-14979.

This actually a serious concern for the user. So I will use Github Actions to build the exe binaries from now on.

This means that I used to build the binaries on my laptop, but from on Github's runner server will build the binary from source pulled directly from the Github repo.

You can try v2.7.5 (https://github.com/sandwichdoge/MinimizeToTray/releases/tag/v2.7.5), it was built using Github Actions.
