  1. Taskbar Icons Missing After Update


    After the last update, some of my taskbar icons are missing. The apps themselves are still there, it's just that the space where the icon should be is all black. The ones affected are: Mail, iCloud and Voice Recorder. I have tried unpinning and resetting but the result is still the same. How can I get these icons to reappear?

    :)

    Sound icon missing from taskbar

    Hi,

    Provide us with the below information to help you better.

    Which build is currently running on your computer?



    As an initial step I would suggest you to install all the pending updates and restart your computer, check if it fixes the issue.



    Make sure Volume button display is enabled in taskbar.

    • Open settings window
    • Click on personalization, on left pane select task bar.
    • On right pane click on 'select what icons appear on the taskbar'.
    • Toggle volume icon to make volume icon appear on task bar.
