Hello Paul Chou!

Thanks for reporting this issue when using Windows Insider in the Dev. channel.

I understand you're experiencing an issue where icons for OneDrive and the security app are not appearing in the system tray after performing a Windows repair.

In the Announcing Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26300.7674 (Dev Channel) published on January 27, 2026. This behavior is confirmed as a known issue under the Taskbar & System Tray section. As shown in the screenshot below, the engineering team is already working on a fix, so please rest assured it will be resolved in an upcoming build.

    Paul,

    There is a Blog posted with every new

    Insider build that I post on Q&A.

    Perhaps read them before creating a post.
