  1. Taskbar always shows all icons


    Hi,


    I have a problem with my taskbar icons. I only want the battery indicator to always show next to the clock, without opening up all with the arrow. Like this: Taskbar always shows all icons 24170688-24d6-41d8-b042-84878815a991?upload=true.png

    However every time when I restart the device it automatically ticks in the "Always show all..." option. Like this: Taskbar always shows all icons b50cfb22-fd23-420f-bf3a-29108f075211?upload=true.png

    Any suggestion about the problem?


    Thanks in advance.

    :)

    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.

  4. Taskbar always shows all icons

    Hidden taskbar icons and taskbar icons options in CREATORS UPDATE

    Hi Davor,

    Taskbar shows us see the programs that we're currently using as well as those that we pinned. It helps us to easily navigate from one program to another. We can update the settings of your taskbar to show it on your desktop. Here's how:

    • Press the Windows icon on your keyboard.
    • Click on Settings (gear icon).
    • Select Personalization then go to Taskbar.
    • Check Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode and
      Automatically hide the taskbar in
      tablet mode options. Make sure to turn them off.

    Let us know if the steps above resolved your concern.
