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.

Icons on taskbar smaller now?


Right click the taskbar
select "Properties"
Uncheck "Use small taskbar buttons"
Click "Apply"





Btw, your taskbar is extended so the icons aren't centered. You can drag the taskbar up and down by hovering over the top of the taskbar to get the double arrows, hold the left mouse button and drag.
