To always show all the Icons in the System Tray or Notification area of Windows 11/10, follow these steps:
1. Press Win+R to open the Run prompt.
2. Enter this value: explorer shell:::{05d7b0f4-2121-4eff-bf6b-ed3f69b894d9}
3. Tick the Always show all icons and notifications on the taskbar checkbox.
4. Click the OK button.Hope this helps everyone!

See, you say this. So they either changed it recently. In which case. Still F em. This should never have been removed. The start menu in windows 11 is still garbage. And its still one big unorganized S-show as. Windows 11 is an homage to terribleness. The right click menu can only be turned normal through the registry. And i could go on. But I'm tired. Completely done with windows 11. And convinced you are lying about the option you are describing. Because this thread wouldn't exist if that option would have been there.
Also, rereading your comment. "a new approach that allows you to individually choose which icons to show in the system tray" THIS WAS ALWAYS THERE. ITS NOT NEW, THEY CANT REBRAND AN OLD OPTION AS "A NEW APPROACH". YOU WHERE ALWAYS ABLE TO SELECT INDIVIDUALLY. YOUR POST IS BAD AND YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD. THIS IS NOT NEW YOU GARBAGE HUMAN BEING.

I think this is the section they are trying to reference... but it still does not behave as expected.
This does need to be an easy GPO (gpedit) or reg setting that can be changed globally for the machine.
- vaiiumApr 10, 2024Brass ContributorAh, alright. So in there there's also not an option to just "show all, always". I think its super weird and annoyingh they removed this option and replaced it with "you gotta click all of m, and click m again if a program had an update" Its honestly beyond me :')
I agree with that it should be easy, and would take it further. It should not be anything more than a check mark or switch. Same with the right click menu and the start menu.
I still hopefully have about 40 to 50 years of computer use to go. And if this is where were going to, I will have to learn how to make an operating system, or how to keep windows 10 relevant for that duration.
If its less than 40 years its because will have died on this hill.
