Windows 10: Permanent issues with Win11 taskbar icons simply disappear or loosing icon association...

Hello,I did reinstall a fresh new version of Win 11 Home and after a while installing basic apps for example from Adobe etc... icons appear to be fine on taskbar but after few restarts they simply started to switch in to default icon graphics. I did tried all reset of explorer, tried to clean up icon cache, restart to safe mode... nothing is working. Is this a I have noticed quite a general problem with task bar functionality is there a way to fix this permanently? Thanx

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.

 

Pin Program Icon to Taskbar Permanently

As you can see in the picture below, when I click the Firefox icon, it disappears. Instead, I want it to be there permanently. How to achieve this?

 

Tray icon disappears

I've been experiencing since the installation of Windows XP SP2 on multiple machines with the ATITool Tray Icon disappearing upon load at system startup. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not. Enabling or Disabling the "Hide Inactive (tray) Icons" WinXP menu option doesn't have any effect. The only way to open ATITool after it has loaded is to go through the start menu to open it again. I have "minimize on close" selected in ATITool. When closing ATITool, you see it make the motions of minimizing to the tray area but no icon is displayed. Any ideas?
