Solved the Problem by bumping up the delay at the startup with the help of a script. Problem seems to be with windows shell.dll

  • The problem is the design of your application. Notification icons only work when there is a user logged in and the application is running on that user's desktop. You're trying to run this app at startup, when there are no users logged in. Change it to run whenever a user logs in by putting it in the "Startup" folder. – Cody Gray - on strike Jul 27 '13 at 09:44
