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.

 

Tray icons disappear after expanding?

I am glad your problem was solved. I just want to add, in case you don't know, you can drag those icons out of the "show hidden icons" box & onto the
Tray (right side) portion of the Taskbar. To put them back in, just drag them off of the Tray & onto the
Desktop.

Same thing can be done at "START, Settings, Personalization, Taskbar" & click "Select which icons appear on the Taskbar" &/or "Turn system icons on or off".
