Windows 10: Every time i open windows 11 , on the task bar an icon appears with a right pointing green...

The thing that appears on the task bar seems to allow app pinning to task bar, but I don't need it it is an unnecessary step and its a bit annoying. I have to "close the window" everytime to remove it by right clicking on it and clicking close window. Is there a setting to stop it appearing every time I log on please?

Search icon does not appear on the task bar

I have a laptop and a recently I bought a desktop Pc running windows 10 home edition. The search icon (next to the windows symbol) does not appear on the task bar on the Pc. It does show on the laptop however. Why is it that? I click on the task bar
with the right button of the mouse and a list appears containing the “search” link on the laptop but that does not appear on the Pc. Also the “cascade windows”, “Show windows stacked” and “show windows side by side” appear grey that is inactive. Both laptop
and Pc run windows 10 Home edition. Could it be something wrong with the installation? I bought the Pc (a Dell inspiron) recently and today I installed the software. But why is it that the search icon does not show on the task bar and actually it is missing
from the list that appears when I click on the task bar with the right button of the mouse? Any help would be welcome.
