  2. System Icons/Overflow arrow missing from taskbar

    Greetings! I need help! I am running windows 10 pro with updates

    Recently i had to force a restart, now the little overflow arrow on the right side of the taskbar is gone and i am not able to access networking, volume, or any recently opened programs like my VPN. I have tried several fixes listed online, such as turning
    them on and off in the various settings menus. I have tried exiting explorer and restarting it as well as the pc itself several times.

    Basically everything listed here short of the system restore..Fix System icons missing from Windows Taskbar

    any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you very much for your time! Tony

    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.
