News & Interest update and systray issues
Windows 10 Home 21H1 x64 (build 19043.1052)
Just installed the 6/8/21 cumulative security update that includes the News & Interests nonsense I mean taskbar function (KB5003637 for me) and am having a version of the corrupted systray icon issues that have been reported.
For me, on startup and/or reboot, although all startup apps load and run correctly, no systray icons appear unless N&I is ENABLED (regardless of its settings). Area is just blank, no clock, no nothing. If enabled the icons appear correctly, and if enabled and immediately DISABLED they remain, but that process must be repeated each time: enable N&I and then disable (I don't want it).
This holds true for both user accounts, admin and standard. I know this is a known issue but if anybody has any ideas/solutions please speak up
