    Can't enable Network icon. 7 Ultimate x64


    Under turn systems icons on or off, the setting for Network is Off and greyed out so it cannot be turned on. Doesn't change if I have all the icons showing or in the popup window.

    In the select which icons menu I have network set to show the icon and notifications.

    The icon was there last night but today is gone.

    I have the latest release of Classic Shell installed, but that's never bothered the notification icons.

    No help here System Icons - Enable or Disable

    HideSCANetwork is not found in the Registry.

    No help here either Programmers BLOG: SYSTEM ICON PROBLEM No instances of cannot repair in the log and sfc /scannow finished with Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

    Finally found a fix.

    Colin Cochrane | Windows Vista Disappearing System Tray Icons Fix

    "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \TrayNotify"

    Delete the values "IconStreams" and "PastIconsStream"

    Use Task Manager to end and relaunch explorer.exe and all the icons are back.
