Taskbar notification icons disappear

I have a running application that shows the hard disk activity. I want this icon to display always down in the system tray because there is no such light on my computer. However, after that the program initially started, he moves to another window hidden with many other icons I can access by clicking on a little toward the top arrow on my system tray. I don't want to do that, because I always wanted to be displayed as one of the system icons. How can I accomplish this?

Right click on the taskbar > properties > customize

Find the app and change it to notifications and display the icon

  • Battery Notification icon disappeared and Im unable to put in operation (option is greyed out)

    Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64 (Compaq Presario Notebook)

    The battery in my menu task notification icon disappeared about 2 weeks ago... I tried to turn on the hidden, icon but it is grayed out and could not click on that I am the full administrator and not on a network of group work or school. I use the laptop for very simple tasks, so I should not have group policy. I went to Device Manager and battery information says that I have a Composite of Microsoft AC adapter battery, a battery of method control compatible ACPI Microsoft, Microsoft... I did not perform any task in there because it seemed a little daunting and Im unfamiliar with this area of the computer as my knowledge is limited.  I have also noticed recently that I have installed Windows Mobility Center that has the power option. May - so that it affects the missing icon? I feel a bit silly to post this question but I've searched the forum and was unable to find the right answer to my problem... Can someone give me some other advice I could try... Thank you!!

  • Start icon disappears from the taskbar. Command prompt concludes that he cannot fix corrupted files.

    My power icon disappeared from my taskbar after a reboot. Following the advice of the Forum I turned on command prompt and asked the sfc/scannow.

    After a long search, I received notification that there were a few corrupted files and not all could be fixed. This had occurred previously in 2012.

    After a security alert, security, I downloaded the program named Emet. After reading more below in the Microsoft forum, I found the comments which Emet

    may damage files. I decided to uninstall Emet. When I finished that I discovered that the Emet icon has disappeared from the taskbar along

    with the battery icons and a few other icons. I took my Asus laptop at Best Buy and the tech there called a Microsoft service don't. and

    has got instructions to restore the missing icons using the appropriate record. It was in summer 2012. When I stopped my laptop Sunday, December 21, 13

    and then reopened Tuesday, December 23, 13 I found that, once more, my power icon had disappeared from the notification area. The correspondent

    subprogrammes in the control panel for the management of the icons in the notification area were inoperative for the icon of power and a few others. This

    was the exact situation I had in 2012, about 16 months ago.

    After failing to solve the problem with the command prompt, I thought I would ask for help. For the moment, I managed without going through the power icon

    presented at the center of mobility in the office and after having pinned the control panel to the taskbar on the right.

    Hi Ronald,.

    When you first start a new computer, the operating system typically runs Startup service initializations that can take anywhere from one to six hours to finish, depending on which applications are preloaded on the computer. Make sure that you give the operating system sufficient time to finish these Startup service initializations until you stop or restart the computer. This problem generally not happen once the operating system has completed initialization of all before background services is restarted.

    I suggest you refer to the following article which has a few registry tweaks to solve the problem. Please follow the steps and check out them.

    System icons do not appear in the notification area in Windows Vista or Windows 7, you must restart the computer

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/945011/en-us

    Note: this section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    Hello

    Try this:

    Control Panel - device - sounds Manager - note manufacturer device name and info on the graduating model.
    Double click and get the date and version of the driver (if 06 are dates, you use the default windows driver). Now
    Click the DRIVER UPDATE (this can not find anything because MS is far behind the certification of drivers). Now LAW
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Now, go to the manufacturer of the system and recover the last pilot audio/Hi-Fi as a fall.

    Download it - SAVE - go to where you put it - RIGHT CLICK top - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT

    Now do the same for the manufacturer of the device (the one that made the device - if you were using the default windows
    you might need to look in the Device Manager - his new driver).

    Often, you will need to run the sound card drivers several times to get the latest version installed and will appear in
    Manager - Sound. This is because they make back the drivers one at a time and then finally install the
    most recent. Look in the Device Manager to be sure that you have installed the version of the driver is the one showing, if not
    run the driver again (reset each time) until the shows a correct.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Then follow the instructions from #5 to #9.

  • Taskbar and icons on Windows Vista disappearing after a certain period of time. Why!

    I noticed that if I leave my PC running for an hour or more unattended (even with my screensaver on and the monitor off), that the icons in the taskbar and the desktop will disappear off the screen when I go back and try to use it.  The only thing I can do is to move my mouse and open some things by right-clicking the mouse, but what is it.  I have no other choice than to make a difficult stop (hold the power button until the PC turns off).  If it helps, my PC is a Dell Inspiron 531 that runs on Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - Bit.  At first, I thought it was a problem caused by Internet Explorer 9 (that I have long eliminated from my PC and thankfully returned IE8), but I was wrong.  In addition, my antivirus program is Norton 360, and I run almost religiously to combat ill will on my PC.  If anyone can help me, I would really appreciate it.

    ADD: Also, after the desktop and the taskbar icons disappear when I try to bring up the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del, the screen goes black and I can just press ESC to return to the white (except for my desktop wallpaper) desktop computer.  Again, any help will be appreciated.

    Hello

    1 did you changes to the software to the computer before the show?

    Start the computer in safe mode and check if the problem is solved or not. If the problem persists not perform the clean boot.

    Was: start the computer in safe mode.

    Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.

    Start your computer in SafeMode (Windows Vista)

    B: Perform the clean boot

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: perform step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7
