Hello,
After a user did a Windows update, they no longer see system tray icons on the bottom-right corner.
I checked previous update history but I don't see any updates which was done on the day issue started occurring. To troubleshoot the issue, I followedScreenshot 2026-06-12 175632.png below steps:
Restarted windows Explorer
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
sfc /scannow
Please let me know what else I can do to fix the issue.
Thank you
The system tray icons and clock disappearing is a reported problem in the optional preview KB5089573 update released at the end of May and the June KB5094126 update.
Check in the Update History section in the Settings app to see if either of those udpates have been installed.
Also, some people indicate if they have the WindHawk utility or some other utility installed to customize the start menu and taskbar, it seems there is a conflict with the utility and those updates.
Hello,
Thanks for your response. I did check in update history, I see 2 updates on the day issue started but when I go to uninstall updates, I don't see the update installed on that day.
After the below update issue started:
Update for Windows Security platform - KB5007651 (Version 10.0.29554.1001)
Please see attached screenshot of available updates to uninstall. Screenshot 2026-06-15 173558.png
Thank you for that information, in that case, if the user does not have any customization utility installed, and those commands you ran did not resolve the problem, I think the best option would be to perform an in-place repair with the Windows ISO
