Hello Aleksey,

Thank you for the shared code snippet. 

Can you try setting the GuidItem property and let me know, if that helps? You can read some more about it in the Getting Started article. 

I hope you find this helpful.

Hello Aleksey,

Thank you for the updated.

I am attaching a sample project, which I prepared based on the shared description. On my end, the RadNotifyIcon is shown as intended with it. 

Can you try it out on your end and let me know how it goes?

Hello Vladimir,

I tried your project - it's worked, the problem was in the GuidItem - need to use new guid ("00000001-0002-0003-0004-000000000005" is not working for me).

Thank you

Hello Aleksey,

Thank you for the shared sample code. 

We are aware of this scenario and it is already logged in our feedback portal: NotifyIcon: The popup does not appear at the correct location under .Net Core.

For the time being, as a workaround, I can suggest manually opening the popup in the TrayIconMouseUp event. I am attaching the sample project updated to demonstrate a possible approach for your reference.

Hope this helps.
