What is  sttray.exe

Sigmatel Audio System Tray Application is the name of the process that usually gets associated with the file sttray.exe. There are also other processes that are linked to the file, but the main function of the file for all processes is to provide support for your onboard audio device driver. The driver enables your computer’s audio functions to work properly. There were a few users’ reports where the system did not detect the file, hence; the audio driver failed to load. The error generally revolved around a missing .dll file for the program; in particular, the system was unable to locate STLang.dll. This is the Dynamic Link Library that your Sigmatel driver needs in order for the program to launch. In such an instance, removing the driver, and using Windows’ default audio driver was the step undertaken by the user to solve the problem. File size is pegged at 488.11 KB. Default folder is C:\Program Files\Sugmatel\C-Major Audio\WDM\sttray.exe.
