I did check TCC under these programs, and this
isn't the same thing,
where you see a box to tick off for "Place in system tray"; these ghost
icons are something else.
Any help or suggestions are welcome.

Don't know if this is what you're looking for, but did you right-click on
the "system tray handle " (the control bar to the left of the system tray)
and use "Configure system tray".
I "hide" the icons I don't use and keep only those I find useful.

Do you mean the right and left panel hiding buttons? First I must click to
unlock the panel, then when I configure the panel itself, there are various
options about panel hiding, etc. But I don't want my panel itself to hide,
just the excess of ghost icons.
Also, if I leave the panel hiding buttons where I can (accidentally) click
them, or if I leave them panel itself unlocked, I tend to mess up somehow,
and suddenly my panel goes all askew, usually getting put to one side or the
other of the screen, as a vertical panel, and for me that is much worse, and
then I spend a while trying to put things back right.
I did search through the Trinity Control Center, and also the TDE menu editor,
trying to find settings for this behavior, but so far nothing.
