    long delay before tool tip pops up from taskbar icon


    There was an item about this is 2016 that never was answered, but was locked. When I hover over the taskbar icons there is about a 10 second delay before the tool tip pops up. At some time in the past, tool tips popped up immediately, making it easy to remember what some of the obscure icons are for. Is there a way to eliminate the long delay in tool tips appearing?

    :)

    System Icons on taskbar

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

    Are you referring to the clock system icon on the taskbar?

    If so, I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below:


    • Click on the search bar on the taskbar.

    • Type system icons.

    • Under Turn System Icons ON or OFF, turn On the Clock and check with the issue.

    Hope it helps.

    Hovering over hidden icons in taskbar no longer shows tool tips


    Until now, when I clicked on the "^" on the right of the taskbar to show hidden icons, I could hover over each one an get a "tool tip" about that icon (usually the name of the program belonging to the icon). The tool tips are no longer working. The icons are there and still work by clicking in them, but no tool tips.

    System, about shows ver 1511, build 10586.589
