    I ended up holding down the “f” key with the volume icon on it .  A hash mark appeared on my tool bar.  When I click on it, it shows me all of my hidden tool bar icons including volume and I can adjust it from there.  Weird and serendipitous, but it works!

    I followed all of the steps as prescribed, all the way to View and Refresh Now.  Still no volume icon.  This is very frustrating.

    This did not help.  I right clicked on the tool bar at the bottom of the screen and there was no option for "properties".  I tried "task bar settings" as an alternative but could not find a solution there.  Any other ideas on how to restore the sound icon to my task bar?  Thanks.
