    Make sure that the icons you're missing are set to show up:
    Right-click on an empty space in the taskbar and click Taskbar settings.
    Scroll down and check the Taskbar corner overflow. Ensure the apps you want are toggled on.

    If all else fails and the issue started occurring recently, you may consider performing a system restore.
    1. Press Windows + R, type rstrui, and press Enter.
    2. Follow the prompts to restore your system to a point before the issue started.

    If none of the above steps work, as a last resort, you can consider doing a system restore to a point where the taskbar was working correctly, or performing a reset (make sure to back up your data first).
