    System Tray visibility changes


    All the suggestions I've seen for changing the visibility of the system tray icons appear to be relevant to earlier versions of Windows 10. I'm at release 1903 on a new build and I can't find a way to make the changes I want. Right-clicking the task bar does not reveal a Properties link, and choosing Settings/Notifications doesn't help either. Could someone please tell me how I can make the changes I need? Thanks.

    :)

    Hi Ally,

    Taskbar settings may have caused the time and date to disappear. We suggest that you follow these steps to make them visible:

    • Right-click the Taskbar.
    • Click Settings.
    • Turn on the Use small taskbar buttons.
    Note: If the Use small taskbar buttons is on, kindly turn it off and check if it made any changes.

    After checking this option, you will be able to see the date and time.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    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 Tray visibility changes

    System Notification Tray Missing

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