Dropbox icon on Windows taskbar
It's possible to specify in the Windows Taskbar settings that the Dropbox icon should appear on the Taskbar. However, it doesn't seem to appear if Dropbox is up to date. How can I cause it to appea...
Is there a way to keep the Dropbox icon ALWAYS in the tasbark's visible area?

Dropbox Community ModeratorHi LabNave, this is possible by clicking the ^ button on the system tray, and then dragging the Dropbox icon to the tray. This would work for any icon there as it's a Windows setting.
I suspect that the problem is the same nuanced problem that I am experiencing: on Windows 10, in dark mode, on one of my Windows computer but not the other, the Dropbox tray icon on the taskbar is a very dark grey square on black, and thus appears to be missing but is actually present (if I hover the mouse on the black square I see "Dropbox 154.3.5344" as a tooltip. Whereas on another Windows computer on my desk the Dropbox tray icon is just fine (white logo). So, how do we get the Dropbox logo to appear rather than a dark grey on black box? All other tray icons from other applications are working fine. This has been going on for weeks for me on this one computer. Help! Thanks.

Hi davidberman, welcome to our Community!
Mind sharing a screenshot of the icon that you see on your end, please?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!
Same with me I can tell there is an icon there but cannot see it unless my cursor rolls over it. Send a picture really? Seems pretty self-explanatory to me.
