Windows 10: Query about showing icons/buttons with user-created toolbars on Windows 10 taskbar

Hi Redditors, I would like to know how to go about showing buttons/icons with user-created toolbars on the Windows 10 taskbar (as shown in the example image I have attached, my user-created toolbars show only titles [e.g., "Win"] and not icons/buttons, even though there are icons assigned to the corresponding toolbar folders).

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Taskbar toolbar "Desktop" opens behind Taskbar

Hello,

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

  What are you exactly referring to when you say “Taskbar-toolbar "Desktop" added to the Taskbar”?
  

For testing, I suggest you to create a new user account and check the status of this issue.

Windows 10 taskbar toolbars not expanding to show icons

After a system restart the custom toolbars I have on my taskbar will not show the icons when clicked to expand, it will only show a thin gray line.

I already ran DISM/SFC, unchecked and re-added the toolbars, verified the folders related to the toolbars and icons are there.

I am running windows 10 enterprise.

 

Taskbar changes height when toolbars have icons set to "Large"

There has been an issue with the Windows taskbar which drives me crazy. It has been a problem since Windows XP and the "skinning" of the underlying user interface controls. It still persists in Windows 10.

When using a Toolbar on the Taskbar and the icon size is set to "small", the clickable targets are smaller than the vertical height of the taskbar. No problem, right? Either make the taskbar icon set to "small" as well and the clickable target area matches.

But what if I like the large buttons to click on? Setting the Toolbar (not taskbar!) icons to Large causes the taskbar vertical height to increase. This is fine for the Toolbar, but the application icons in the Taskbar now have an unclickable space beneath
them. See image below (not my image... found online when trying to find a solution to this.)





This doesn't happen in Windows 7 when using the "Windows Classic" scheme... so the problem must derive from the Aero skinning of the taskbar.

To recreate:

• Right click on the taskbar and Unlock it.
• Ensure taskbar is set to "large icons" mode from Taskbar properties dialog box.
• Right click an empty area of the taskbar and create a new Toolbar.
• Right click on the label of the toolbar and choose View > Large Icons

This wouldn't necessarily be an issue if the clickable region of the Application Icons was the full vertical height of the visible taskbar. It also wouldn't be an issue if the Toolbar "Large Icons" setting didn't have icons bigger than the Application Icons.

If there is a registry hack or other solution PLEASE let me know! I have had this problem with Toolbars since Windows XP, and the Toolbars are essential to my workflow.

Thanks!
