[PyQt] Problem with QSystemTrayIcon.showMessage

[Kálmán Viktor]

It displays the application name there, I don't think you can hide that, at
least Qt doesn't have an option for it (
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsystemtrayicon.html#showMessage).
It display Python because you are running it via the python interpreter,
once you have built your application for it will display a proper name.
As for the 2nd message it's on Windows, it's either a cache issue (it
usually resolves after a while) or a bug in Windows:
