  Click with the right button on the taskbar - properties - tab Notification area - customize - across the vertical entrance
  Hide - set, the other to hide when it is idle - OK - APPLY / OK. RESTART and check, then
  define inputs and others as you wish.

• icons missing from the notification area on the taskbar (the path below the screen) - the volume icon disappeared and arrow to show/hide icons disappeared

  The icons in the notification area of the bar (on the side of the lower right of the desktop) tasks are not all there.  The speaker/volume icon is over now and the arrow next to the notification (to show and hide icons) area has also disappeared.  I have not changed anything on the computer.  I tried to restart but it did not help.  No idea why this would suddenly disappear and how to get it back?

  Have you tried right clicking on an empty area of the taskbar, properties tab and taskbar by selecting it and then pressing the button customize section Notification area?

• Missing icons in the Notification area of the taskbar

  Some of my auto began the task at startup are not presented in my taskbar notification area. Check or uncheck to hide the icons inactive functions have no influence on this behavior. Is this a known bug of Windows XP-Home Edition?

  Hello

  Tasks that are not present in the taskbar area?
  As far as I know if the application has started as a background process doesn t lie in the taskbar.
  Also possibly installing some programs ask you if you want to create the icon in the taskbar.

  Additional I found an article very useful on the icons in system tray missing at startup of Windows XP.

• Icon 'Remove hardware safely' is missing from the notification area

  I just reinstalled Win7 X 64 business but found that the icon 'Remove hardware safely' is missing from the notification area when I plug a USB key or external HARD drive (they don't work either by the way, I can view files in them no problem), I tried the solution of workaround suggested in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-desktop/safely-remove-hardware-icon-missing-and-cant-eject/e9fda0a2-c308-4853-bf1d-a3926ff0fcd1?page=1&tm=1299855382970#footer , but it does not resolve the issue, I don't see the USB stick or external HARD disk in the dialog 'remove hardware safely '. The only way I can eject a USB device is click on the drive in windows Explorer and select "eject" while even "eject" is not available for an external HARD drive

• Missing icons in the notification area

  The only icons in the notification area are Microsoft Security Essentials and the clock. How can I get the default icons (especially ' remove hardware safely') to appear?

  It wasn't the problem. But I did a ggogle search and found many others have had the same problem of lack of icons in the notification area, the solution was a small script that change a line in the registry, and the problem is solved. The problem has been apparently related to start several programs at the same time when the computer is turned on.
