    Taskbar icons moved over to the left...


    Hello and hope you're all keeping well,

    This morning I suddenly realised that some of my taskbar icons had moved over to the left...

    Normally I only have the Windows start icon on the left then the usual show hidden icons/speaker/network/ time/date icons on the right. In the midddle I have the task view/Microsoft store/Edge/file explorer/OE Classic and Brove icons. It is these six that have moved over to the left.

    Any help getting these back to the middle of the task bar would be appreciated. I have looked on here but coulddn't find any obvious answers...

    John

    :)

    Just to clarify did you see New folder when you go to Toolbar?

    If not, follow these steps:

    • Uncheck Lock all taskbars.
    • Check if you will see this lines

      beside the Start menu.
    • Drag the lines going to the clock.
    • Pinned icons should move to the left side of the taskbar.
    • Put check on Lock all taskbars.

    Let us know how it goes.

    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.
