    The start menu does not have File explorer or All apps listed. This

    is the situation I described above. The red arrow shows the pinned icon and the blue arrow shows the one that starts when I select the pinned icon.

    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.
