Not All Icons Showing In The System Tray??

Hi everyone,

I am having a problem with the system tray. I am running Windows 11 latest build (22H2 22621.900).

Basically, if I go into taskbar settings and toggle apps in the "Other system tray icons" area and add more apps to be always displayed, not all the icons show in the tray. One of them disappears.

This is with all apps in the "Other system tray icons" area of taskbar settings.

I hope I have described this correctly.

This behaviour is present on two machines - my desktop PC and my laptop.

Images are below to demonstrate.

Can anyone help??

Hello Brett, I'm Greg here to help.

I understand when you move System Tray icons to task bar at least one is invisible, which is a known issue in Windows 11 with fixes I'll give you.

Try these fixes for invisible icons in System tray on Task Bar in Windows 11:

Hi,

Thanks for your help, but these did not fix my issue.

These fixes appear to be for icons on the taskbar, not ones in the system tray.

Thanks anyway.

Thanks for your feedback.

The System Tray is part of the taskbar so fixes often work for both.

Did you try them?
