I found a bug in Windows 11 when I opened a chrome profile, it shows up two profile icons instead of just one (see the screenshot). In Windows 10, it used to open with the bottom-right icon, but I think Windows 11 added a new place for the icon in the upper-right, but overlapping it with the old icon place instead of replacing it.
Device and OS Spesification:
Is it just for me or everyone else have the same problem? If so, I hope this bug can be fixed in the next update. Thank you.

@rizalfauzi Thanks this does work but when I delete the icon from my desktop the issue returns? Any ideas? Thanks

@rizalfauzi Sorry for the double response but I just found a slight tweak to your method that seems to work without the need to create the desktop shortcut.
1. Right click on taskbar icon
2. Right click on Google profile in menu list
3. Properties
4. Change Icon to google chrome icon. icon location %ProgramFiles%\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
Seems to work but I'll report back if I have any issues.

Scroll down to taskbar behaviors

Hello,
This worked for me. But I have two separate Chrome accounts for work and personal, and I realized when opening my personal account that my Google account icon/badge no longer shows. So my question is: if badges were turned off, what is the remaining icon on my Chrome taskbar and why is it still on, but my personal one isn't?

@MikeMcDoo Good question - I have not experienced this and I'm unable to assist. Best wishes!
