    I just updated to 24h2 and now have MANY "useless to me" icons in my system tray that I can no longer remove. This part of the supposedly "system tray and taskbar enhancements" and I prefer not having so many icons Will MS give me back the option to remove the icons I do not want from my system tray as I was able to do before the update to 24h2? I really DO NOT LIKE having all those icons there. Thanks for any help or info. Allan

  2. How to recover hidden icon in System tray on Windows 10?

    Hi Callum,

    As you are facing issues with un-hiding the icon in System tray, we will help you with this issue.

    Do let us know which is the icon you have deleted from the system tray for better assistance?

    I suggest you to try the below steps to add the icons to Taskbar and check if it helps.

    • Press Windows key, click on Settings.
    • Click on System> Notifications & actions.
    • Click on Select which icons appear on taskbar (to select the icons that appear on Taskbar)
      and also click on Turn system icons on or off

    Hope it helps. If the issue still persists, let us know with brief description for further assistance. We will be happy to help you.

    Thank you.

    Malwarebytes Premium icon no longer in System Tray after latest update

    Hello Lynn,

    One possible reason why the software icon is missing on the system tray from your desktop is may be due to missing or corrupted system files. In order for us to isolate the issue, we'd like to ask the following:

    • We'd like to clarify, which Windows update are you referring? Is it Fall Creators Update?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • Are you getting any error messages before or after setting your program to show up in the system tray?

    We are looking forward to your reply.

    System Tray Icons Don't Stay in Tray and Instead Keep Moving Up Into "Off Icons"

    I tried this suggestion to keep the tray icons I want in my tray THERE

    instead of moving up into the icons box at the system tray arrow.

    I tried these instructions listed on this site in answer to the same question:

    1. click Start.

    2. Type Customize icons.

    3. click Customize icons on the task bar.

    4. Click Turn system icons on or off.

    5. Set the icons that you want to On.

    6. Click ok.

    That works, but not for long.

    Then the problem repeats.

    I'd like a solution that keeps the icons I select IN THE TRAY till I change them,

    even if I power on or off.

    The solution seems like it should be simple, but it's not.

    To save you time helping me:

    I've researched the other threads, and I will not change the Registry,

    or create a new account, or do another
    System File Checker (SFC),

    or try the solutions listed in those other threads that did not result in a solution,

    so please do not propose those.

    Do you have an idea that might work? Would love to hear.

    Windows 10, updated.
