Windows 10: "Select Icons Which Appear on the Taskbar" - choices not sticking after reboot/restart...?

I am not seeing a USB device (X-Rite i1Display Pro) attached to the computer.


It is not visible in Taskbar, as I would expect. It is also not visible in Device Manager, as I would expect.


If I choose, Windows Key/X > Settings > Devices, I can see it there and remove it.


Also, it is working perfectly with X-Rite software.


But, I'd like to be able to disconnect it via the Taskbar.


So,...……..


I do the following...


Right Click Taskbar > Settings > Notification Area > Select which icons appear on the taskbar > Windows Explorer/Safely remove hardware and eject...


I turn this On.


But, after a restart, I check and it's off again.


If this would make my USB device visible in the Taskbar, how can I make it stay on?


Many thanks.

Hi,

To assist you further, let me ask.

• 
  When you say “Trying to move desktop icon to the task bar”, you mean pin the excel workbook to the task bar?
  
• what exactly when you try to stick the excel file to the taskbar?

If you are trying to pin the excel workbook to the taskbar.

Follow the steps below.

• 
  Click on the start menu, select the icon and right-click on the icon.

  From the list, select pin it to taskbar or pin it to start.
  

Also, you can drag the icon from the desktop and drop on the task bar.

Shortcut to "select which icons appear on the taskbar"


My challenge is that I'm running a program that refuses to retain it's taskbar setting to always show. So, everytime I reboot, I have to go to "System\Notifications & actions\Select which icons appear on the taskbar" and find the program (it's Choicemail) and toggle on the notification.

I have a shortcut to get me to the "System\Notifications & actions dialog", but I'd really like to go direct to the "Select which icons appear on the taskbar" dialog.

Of course, the ideal solution would be for Choicemail to resolve this problem, but they haven't since Windows XP and their tech support blames Microsoft.

I'd use a macro to execute, but with Windows 10 walking away from shortcut keys on most system settings, I haven't figured that out. I also don't know what CMD to use from an admin run instance to get there.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

TIA!
