    Without the arrow, I always have to go to Bluetooth settings and then connect and disconnect devices which is very tedious. Unlike the WiFi button see the attached image which still has it. How to fix that?

    Missing Notification area Icon in Windows 10 control Panel

    thanks , but you did not understand the problem.

    I have since found the solution wlsewhere:

    To add a hidden icon to the notification area


    • Click the arrow next to the notification area, and then drag the icon you want to move to the notification area. You can drag as many hidden icons to the notification area as you want.

    To
    always show all icons on the taskbar



    • Right-click an empty area on the taskbar, and then click Properties.

    • Under Notification area, click Customize.

    • Select the Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar check box, and then click
      OK.

    Notification Area Scroll Arrows


    I recently formatted my laptop and performed a fresh install of Windows 10. Everything was going well, until I noticed that when I have more than 4 icons in the Notification Area, I get scroll arrows to scroll left or right, instead of the Notification Area just resizing to accommodate more icons. It also adds space to the right of the time, which is weird. This happens regardless of how many applications I have open, even having nothing at all open. I've tried using small taskbar buttons, and changing all the taskbar settings I can find, but it does exactly the same.

    This is how many icons I usually have:

    When it works with 4 icons (plus Notification Icon):

    And when I try add more than 4 icons - notice the scroll arrows on the left and right, plus blank space:

    Anybody know how to fix this?
