    I have a problem with the taskbar.


    Hi everyone, I have a strange problem. In the Windows settings, I have set the taskbar to automatically hide when not in use, everything was fine until suddenly it happened that the taskbar stopped extending on all windows that are not minimized. It doesn't want to extend. Or it still extends when I'm on the desktop. I also tried restarting it in the task manager, turning it off and on, but nothing helps, please help me someone.

    :)

    Problem with a combine taskbar icons.

    Hello,

    In Windows 10, you can personalize the settings of your taskbar. If there are multiple applications opened, same applications will be combined under one taskbar button. If you want to change this setting, we suggest that you follow the steps listed below:

    • Press the Start button.
    • Click on the Settings app.
    • Select Personalization.
    • At the left side of your window, click on Taskbar.
    • Under Combine taskbar buttons, choose Never.

    Kindly update us with the results and if you have further queries, feel free to post back.

    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.
