Default System Tray Problems in Win10 Home v. 2004

tb wrote:

I am using Windows 10 Home, 64-bit, with a laptop connected to the
Internet via Wi-Fi. I recently upgraded to the 2004 version.

I just noticed that if I click on the Wi-Fi or Clock icons (both
located in the System Tray), nothing happens.

Typically, clicking on the Wi-Fi icon would show the available Wi-Fi
networks and some tiles called Wi-Fi, Airplane Mode, and Mobile Hotspot.

And normally clicking on the clock would bring up the calendar.

Plese note: The laptop is able to connect to all the _registered_
Wi-Fi networks. I don’t have a problem connecting to the Internet so
long as one of the registered Wi-Fi networks is available. But the
problem would be if I need to connect to a new Wi-Fi network.

All the other icons in the System Tray seem to work ok.

Has anyone else experienced this and found a solution?


Have you rebooted the OS since the 2004 feature update?

If "recent" means within the last 10 days, you can revert. See:

https://www.howtogeek.com/675411/how...y-2020-update/

Of course, if you schedule your own image backups, you can restore using
those instead of hoping Microsoft's reversion works.

Whichever method you use to recover the state of your Windows
installation back to before you installed the 2004 update, retest to see
if the problems went away when you go back to what you had before.
