Windows 10: Some Icons not showing on taskbar

I am running Windows 10 Home - Version 1903 - Build 18362.

Since the last 2 Windows update some icons are not showing when pinning to the task bar or when programs are open.

So far the programs not showing an icon but just a white line at the bottom of the taskbar are Edge, Microsoft Calendar and the calculator.


Red arrows are pointing to 2 of those programs that are open. I've looked in settings but can't see anything on how to fix this.

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
