Notification Area - Hidden Chevron Missing
For some users setting the very first icon to Always Hide, restores the arrow. This
behavior seems to come into effect when one uses an icon on the System Tray. Also be
certain that the "behavior" of each of each icon is what you want it to be.
Right-click each, to make changes.

Why don't my Notification Area icons show or why do they disappear?
