    What does this globe icon on Network Status mean?


    Latest W10 on HP 750.
    When going to Settings>Network&Internet>Status, under Network status there are three icons in this order:
    computer---Fully active internet icon---a globe.
    As my internet seems to be working fine (Trouble Shooting was negative, surfing the net, getting emails,) could it be that I just never noticed it before...or does it mean something I should be aware of? Thanks.

    :)

    Globe Icon in Taskbar

    Hello, I recently just got a PC, and there’s a globe icon on the taskbar instead of the wifi connectivity icon. When ever I press it, it takes me to ‘network and internet settings’ but then when I click ‘show available networks’, nothing happens. Does
    anyone know how to fix this

  3. What do the Status icons mean in OneDrive?

    I have recently been upgraded to Windows 10 - Version 1803 and there are new Status icons in OneDrive. Where is there a document that explains what they mean? (Before you ask for a screen shot, Microsoft developed these icons so you should have a listing
    that should be shared publicly - I shouldn't have to show you what you developed - and I don't think I should have to ask each time I uncover a new icon that I might not be aware of today - just give me a list of all of them with images I can see).

    I really like that the icons are in a column by themselves instead of overlapping the icon showing the document type. Thanks for making that more user friendly.

    I also wanted to make sure the Status icon is included in all my folder views, but there are two items called "Status" in the Choose Details selection box. Why are there two fields called "Status" and how do they differ? When I add them both to my view one
    has the icons and the other is blank.

    Looking forward to a helpful response.
