Hello everyone, This is my first post on Stack Overflow and I'm just wondering on the options of making a system tray application.

Is there any way to retrieve the time a user last moved their mouse, hit a key or interacted in any way with their machine?

When an application adds an icon to the system tray and minimises to it, there must be a way to restore it. However, when it comes to restoring the window I'm not sure what the 'correct' behaviour is for applications. Do I restore on a double click, on a single click, or not at all? What's the Windows standard? ...
