Hello,

I have a concern repeated on 20 pc!
The notification bar on the right, often disappears.
Must reload the theme windows 7 to make reappear.

Could you fix this bug ZorinOS 9!

This is very annoying.

Best Regards

Linux

I would like to say, me too! The notification area with all its icons and the clock very often disappears for no apparent reason! Please have this fixed ASAP!

Check the workaround - does this still happen after a complete update?

From a terminal:

Code:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install dist-upgrade -f


I have to say that whether I have been running 32-bit or 64-bit never had an issue - would be curious to know of who has the bug, what processor and what graphics they are running! :D

Which workaround? Your posting points to a thread explaining how to install Awn applets. Please explain how this relates to the systray icons disappearing.

To be confirmed.

Please elaborate why you think this might help with the disappearing systray icons.

Hi,

I periodically also had missing icons and changing the desktop theme solved the problem for me!. I am currently using "Gnomish Dark" downloaded from the Noobslab website!. :D
