Windows 10: System tray icons disappearing yet still running in task manager

Sometimes the system tray icons on my computer disappear one by one in quick succession, I don't know the reason for it.It just started happening recently, and the disappearing icons associated apps are still running in the background. Does anyone have a fix for this? I've ran a virus scan with malwarebytes and it hasn't found anything.

Tray icon disappears

I've been experiencing since the installation of Windows XP SP2 on multiple machines with the ATITool Tray Icon disappearing upon load at system startup. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not. Enabling or Disabling the "Hide Inactive (tray) Icons" WinXP menu option doesn't have any effect. The only way to open ATITool after it has loaded is to go through the start menu to open it again. I have "minimize on close" selected in ATITool. When closing ATITool, you see it make the motions of minimizing to the tray area but no icon is displayed. Any ideas?

System Tray icons keep disappearing

A lot of system tray icons are disappearing by themselves, usually when I launch a game and then exit. For example, I use the SpyderXPro program to load my color profile. Sometimes the color profile resets and I'll have to manually right click the SpyderXPro icon and then load profile. Only the icon disappeared so I can't load the color profile.

The SpyderXPro program is still active, as it shows up in my task manager, only the system tray icon has disappeared. Same thing with the iCUE software for my keyboard lighting. The lighting only works when the program is opened (which it is), but the system tray icon is just gone.

The icons reappear when I restart Windows, but they always manage to disappear at some point. Does anyone know why this is? It didn't use to do this before, as I reinstalled Windows 10 yesterday.
