Sometimes the taskbar icons die on my Win-10 machine. I saw the resolve on the internet of resetting Windows Explorer to get them active again but to me that is just a band-aid. Is there a way to actually fix the problem?
I tried to do a search for your problem, and apparently there is a problem with icons going invisible (but actually still there and you can click the space) that may be different from a problem with the icons not being there at all.
Here's one fix that involves your antivirus and removing Desktop from the protected folders list: https://social.technet.microsoft.co...nned-icons-on-task-bar-keep-disappearing If you are using Windows Defender as an antivirus, the above is probably not the problem, but if you're using a 3rd party antivirus this fix might help.
Yes... first thing I was going to ask was what anti-virus you are using? I use Defender and have no problems. But a computer I worked on used McAfee and I had to exclude Desktop from it.
Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.
