Hello,
In the notification area of 'task bar and start menu properties' network and power icons are gray and won't accept a selection in order to ad to my task bar. How can I get them back?

Thanks

Hello,

Try this 1

1) Click on Start --> In search box, type regedt32 and press Enter.

"Registry Editor" will be opened.

First backup your registry by clicking on File --> Export --> Save the file with

any name in your desired location.

At the left pane, go to the below location

HKEY_CURRENT_USER --> Software --> Classes --> Local Settings --> Software

--> Microsoft -->Windows --> CurrentVersion --> TrayNotify

At the right pane, delete the PastIconStreams, IconStreams

2) Hold the Ctrl and Shift Keys and press the Esc key.

"Task Manager" will be opened. Click on "Processes" tab --> Select "explorer.exe

under the "Image Name" --> Click on "End Process".

Now click on "File" --> New Task --> Type explorer.exe and Press Enter.

Good Luck
