Here's a procedure found in the support forums that seems to work every time I
encounter the disappearing from taskbar
problem:

I have the same issue with a 16-bit, have had it for some time, Citrix states
it is a design flaw with the application,k
which I agree with, since I am testing this application as a 32-bit
application, and the task bar icon and such is
there, I can minimize and maximize without issue.

Subject: [THIN] minimise a 16bit published application and it disappears
Hi All
Has anyone seen a problem and fixed where a seamless published application (in
this case a 16bit one), when minimised by
the client, disappears from view. Even when maximised, the application doesn't
appear on the task bar.
The only way to get the app back is by using alt-tab, or going into the
connection manager, setting the connection to
full screen, hitting ctrl-f1 to get task manager and switching to the app from
there.
I have tried settings suggested on the citrix site and forums setting Seamless
Exception Registry Flags on the hosting
server but it hasn't made any difference. I would prefer not to run this
application in a window.
Cheers
Doug
