Do you have the little "down arrow"?

I just click on that and voila! BTW, my task bar is on top.

Hi Wynona thank you for your reply,

No nothing like that I have all systray icons set to show, what happens is that the icons will appear at random say I open an explorer window they appear for a short time and then disappear they just don't work consistently

edit ... I have rolled back to 21376 and everything is working again

I'm still baffled by how bad these last two builds have been--for me. My hardware is not that unusual at all... It's fairly run-of-the-mill straight ATX--off-the shelf retail components that all run splendidly in 21370, for instance. Rather than repeat myself, the following is what I left at the Hub today:

"21376 I could never install no matter what I did, and always only ever got a black screen. Could boot into safe mode--so the problem has to do with drivers--or the build's handling of my drivers.

21382 has occupied my entire Saturday in troubleshooting to coax it to run with the stability and ease of 21370, for instance, but no dice. I regressed a bios version and about 4 GPU driver versions and finally managed to get it to boot to desktop--but the build was so unstable that merely making a change to a driver that required a system reboot would result in booting to a black screen from which there was no recovery. No exceptions. I ended up with nine (9) restore points trying to get something to work with stability. Nothing doing in 6 hours.

So, I'm back to 21370, which runs wonderfully with all of my hardware and software, and the most recent bios versions and the most recent driver versions for all of my devices. My hardware is fairly commonplace these days--which makes it all more strange!"

--Yes, I haven't run into builds like this since the 2015/2016 time frame! Macrium Reflect is such a blessing...


"And then he noticed that he actually did repeat himself!"...

It seems they updated this message as well. At least we know, what MS admin looks like.

That resembles Brandon from the Insider Team.
