    System tray partially off the screen


    Hi, I'm having problems with the system tray. It seems that it's being placed too far to the left causing half of it to end up out of the screen. Changing the resolution to a lower one and then back to the recommended one seems to fix this temporarily, but after any interaction with the taskbar it goes back to the broken state.This is an example of how it looks:After changing the resolution back and forth:and then when interacting with the taskbar:I tried runnning scf /scannow, but it couldn't fins anything wrong.Does anyone has any idea about how to fix this?

    :)

    Lost clock and calendar from system tray after update on September 25, 2016

    Hi,

    There are several reasons why this issue happens. To help you resolve this concern, we suggest that you adjust the height of the system tray. Kindly follow the steps below:

    • Right-click on the system tray.
    • Make sure that the Lock all taskbars
      option is unchecked.
    • Try positioning your cursor at the top edge of the system tray until you see a vertical line with arrows at both tips.
    • Hold the left mouse button down and drag the edge of the system tray upward to expand it.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    System Notification Tray Missing

    No dice. It's my entire system tray that's missing, not just the icons in it.
