Are you saying that you have no icons down there either?

My internet and volume control are there and whenever I open a program such as steam or MSI Afterburner there icons show up

 

[Dude]

Try a reboot, they usually come right back.

Oh. Try this:

1. Right-click the Notification Area (or just right-click the clock)
2. Choose "Customize notification icons"
3. At the bottom of this window, disable "Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar"
4. Now up above you can customize each icon to be how you want
5. When you're finished, click OK

Edit: I did not link that in Step #3. I think a moderator did it.

That didn't work and reboot didn't work

Was it already disabled?

Did you spend time customizing your preferences in Step #4?

It doesn't let me untick the 'Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar'

Do you log in Windows with an Administrator account or a Standard account?

Then that's a problem that we need to address.

It's an Administrator account and even after a reinstall of Windows, it's still not there

Are you able to toggle that option named "Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar"?

Ok i ticked the box and still the arrow is missing and now my SSD is slow and windows sometimes just hangs at starting windows

The arrow is supposed to be there when that option is disabled, not enabled.

Either way, it sounds to me like there's some underlying problem that needs to be fixed and this 'missing arrow' thing is just one small symptom. I mean, it could be some kind of a virus or other kind of malware.

So again, are you willing to reinstall again, but this time you format?

When I did reinstall, I did format and everything appears to be normal now, arrow pops up and my SSD is back to being fastr

Oh good. Although, I am worried about what caused this in the first place, so keep us posted!
