THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST SOLUTION FOR ALL THE MISSING TRAY ICONS TO RETURN (WINDOWS 7)
1) Run 'regedit.exe' (Without the quotes)
2) Goto key 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\LocalSettings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \TrayNotify
3) Delete keys 'IconStreams' & 'PastIconsStream', then close regedit
4) Right click on Taskbar, Click on Start task manager, Go to Processes and kill explorer.exe
5) Go to Applications in the task manager, Click on New task, and then type 'explorer.exe' (Without quotes)
Explorer will now reboot and woohoo, your icons should all return. Works like a charm
6) The Final step is to then click on little up arrow in the traskbar and customize which icons you want to appear on the tastbar.
