Windows 10: How to you add apps on the hidden icon

How do you add back an app on the hidden icon when it was mistakenly removed?

How to make a Uber Hidden Folder

• Make a new folder.
• Change the icon to a blank icon. No icon should appear
• Rename the folder to a blank by pressing "alt + 255." (NOTE: Press 255 on the numpad) No text should appear.
• Your done! It is uber hidden. *Big Grin

 

Taskbar system/app icons hidden/disappear, icons limited?

Thanks for the suggestion, really hoping it's something small like this that can resolve this. I've long uninstalled Winaero Tweaker -- and it had no tweaks for the taskbar icons.

So regardless of how I display the taskbar icons, the bumped off ones (right most, farthest) become hidden. In this case, I stretched it out to two rows tall with all icons displayed and the Power and Network icons still both get bumped off *Sad




Basically what I previously observed -- it's almost as if there is a limit of 4-5 icons that can be displayed, and each system app exceeding it is pushed out or "hidden". Yet It's not a space constraint -- all the icons can be displayed -- just not the ones that've been forced into this hidden mode. In this case, the ones I care about *Sad

 

hidden icons

If the icon is completely missing & not just hidden.

Right click start & choose run enter

"rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll" without the quotes.

Choose a drive to eject, once ejected icon should return.

Or:

Step 1. Go to > Settings > Privacy

Step 2. App Permissions > Background Apps.

Toggle ‘Let apps run in the background’ switch to off.

Restart computer. (action center not showing previously or new notifications)

Step 3. Go back to the settings page, previously mentioned in step 1 and 2.

Toggle the ‘Let apps run in the background’ switch to on,

as described in Step 2.

Restart once again.

Action Center is now showing notifications.

As well as the "Safe to remove" pop-up for flash drives without issues.
