Taskbar icon question

Under Taskbar>Select which icons appear on the taskbar

Any way to remove items in the list that are no longer installed?

I have a couple that are still listed but I have removed them via their perspective uninstallers.

You should be able to just right click the icon on the Taskbar and choose: "unpin from Taskbar"

This isn't on the taskbar itself but within Settings>Personalization>Taskbar>Select which icons appear on the taskbar...

I have (2) items in the list which are not installed anymore but are still listed.

In the registry... Go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify

On the left side, right click the TrayNotify folder and choose: Export. Name it w/e you want .reg, and save it to the Desktop.

Then on the right pane, right click the IconStreams and the PastIconStream items, and choose: Delete.
Then reboot the computer.



IF anything goes wrong, you can just double click the file we Exported... to Import it again.

Hi udidwht, I use the following bat from Brink to achieve that, just download it, run it, restart and you are set:
Reset Notification Area Icons in Windows 10

Hope this helps
