1. Press Win+R to open the Run prompt.
2. Enter this value: explorer shell:::{05d7b0f4-2121-4eff-bf6b-ed3f69b894d9}

This is a crazy solution respectively it is NO solution. If someone wants to always see every active tools always and every time in the systray, of course he do NOT want to activate it for every icon separately. And the biggest problem is, if there comes a new tool or when there is a change, with Windows 11 you always have to re-active the setting for this icon.
Microsoft, why do you have to make good things worse?
I understand that you want to hide the icons as a standard to make your OS look clean.
But of course you have to make all the icons visible with one checkbox for advanced users who need all the icons really often. It is a crazy idea to force the users to activate each and every icon separately. And of course we have to do it every time again when we install a new software. Crazy, really, really crazy.
