    Windows restart deletes new icons on task bar and reverts to default


    Whenever windows 10 restarts it removes my added icons from the task bar (windows office, windows live mail, virus program and malware program. For windows live mail it is still on the list of programs but I have to reload the program and put in new POP and SMTP info. My emails than reload but all my contacts, saved and sent emails, and safe sites have been erased. The virus and malware programs are still on my screen and functioning. Just need to add them back to task bar. All my windows office files are there. All of my favorite sites on Edge have disappeared and I have to add them again. All of my saved passwords have also disappeared. I have tried everything on the community site but have been unable to fix the problem. Any new ideas. Thanks. John

    • Right-click an empty area on the taskbar, and then click
      Properties.
    • Under Notification area, click
      Customize.
    • In Notification Area Icons, click on Select
      which icons appear on Taskbar.
    • On in the drop-down list next to
      Power, and then click OK.
    If the issue still persists you can try Updating the latest Power management driver software for Windows 10 from the manufacturer website.

  4. Windows restart deletes new icons on task bar and reverts to default

    Windows 10 Defender - How to make it default to task bar?

    Using Windows 10 and currently I am using Defender for anti virus. For whatever reason Windows Defender does not show up in the task bar unless I search for the program or right click and scan a file/folder. Is there a way to force Defender to show up in the task bar at start up?
