Windows 10: Random battery precentage text on the task bar.Windows 11

I have installed windows 11 and have been having these little black boxes appear saying the wifi connection or the battery percentage. They have been appearing on the other side of the taskbar since i have installed Windows 11. I wasn't able to take a screenshot because it always dissapears when i move my mouse.

• Right click on the taskbar and select Settings.
• Under Notification Area, click Turn system icons on or off.
• Look for Power and toggle Power to On. Your battery icon should appear in the system tray again.
