After I upgraded and reinstalled the new Windows 11 24H2, And I haven't installed any drivers & software yet.

Everytime When I restart Windows 11 24H2, the taskbar sticky key icon will disappear?

Settings > Help Tools > Keyboard > Sticky Keys --> Show sticky key icon on task: ENABLE

Settings > Personalization > Taskbar > Other system box icons --> windows File Manager: ENABLE

Both of the above options are ENABLE, but after restarting Windows 11 24H2, the sticky key icon in the taskbar will still disappear?

    Hello,

    I just installed the latest Windows 11 24H2 and tested the same action—turning on Sticky Keys and restarting. The icon did indeed disappear after the update to Windows 11 24H2. Additionally, after some time, the toggle for Sticky Keys turned off automatically. It seems this might be a bug in this version.

    Please try to re-enable sticky keys. Manually toggling the Sticky Keys feature can restore its icon on the taskbar.

    1. Press Win + I to open Settings.
    2. Navigate to Accessibility > Keyboard.
    3. Under Sticky Keys, toggle the switch off and then back on.

    Also try restarting Windows Explorer. This can refresh the taskbar and potentially restore missing icons.
