Come on Microsoft. 350, 000 people have viewed this thread looking for a solution.
Put the option "Show all tray icons" back into Windows 11. For me, I want to see whats running in my tray as part of keeping my PC trimmed of unnecessary background rubbish. These days it seems like most apps want their own tray icon running which drives me mad. I want the tray icons front and centre when something new is installed.
Remember when hiding tray icons was a new concept? Now Microsoft has ACTIVELY DISABLED the OPTION to show new tray icons by default. People writing apps and scripts for a simple tick box. Madness.
