Windows 10: Add or remove icons from arrowhead on taskbar

Sorry for the title, but I have 2 questions about this item:



1) What is that 1/2 triangle/arrowhead that I've drawn an arrow to called?
2) How can you add or remove an icon that is on it?

I tried to look for a tutorial & also googled notification area & taskbar, but I couldn't find a name for this item. It's similar to the old Quick Launch.

Thanks in advance.

Safely remove hardware icon

Hi Cynthia,

For us to properly isolate the missing "Safely Remove Hardware icon" issue, we would like to know the following:

• Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
• When did the issue first begin?
• To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

Normally, this icon isn’t missing and it’s most likely hidden in your Taskbar. To reveal this icon, you may click the arrow in the bottom right corner to show more sysbar icons. If it is available, you may pin it to your Taskbar by following the steps below:

• Connect a USB flash drive or any other removable storage to your PC.
• Click the arrow in the bottom right corner to expand the sysbar section.
• Now locate Safely Remove Hardware icon and drag it to your Taskbar.
