    Hey all. I use windows 10. I also normally use ethernet with my internet but sometimes i would use wifi. On the bottom right corner, there is usually the computer logo which means im connected wired ethernet or wifi. However, i recently clicked on it and moved it and its no longer there. Its only there when you click on that arrow and when you click on it, lot of icons are shown such as that and everything else. Can someone tell me how i can restore the internet computer icon/wifi icon on the bottom right of my computer?

    When you have too many icons in your taskbar, some of them will be gathered in to that little arrow, you can move the individual icons to the taskbar by clicking and dragging them to taskbar.

    Simply expand the list of hidden icons by click on the upward facing small arrow in the bottom right section of your taskbar, when you see the hidden icons, grab the Wifi one that you want to always be shown and drag it back next to the always shown icons, you need to drag it to the left side of the speaker icon that's where its default location is.
