Aloha,
I used to be able to hide the icons in the Systray (ones
that were not used for a while), but now all the icons
are displayed and I cannot hide them (There's not even an
arrow-circle button). Can anyone please help me? Also,
please note that the option in "Taskbar properties" for
hiding the icons can be checked or not - the icons are
still not able to be hidden.

Hi,

It takes up to an hour for the chevron to appear, depending if explorer.exe
has crashed. If this is not the case, marking one of the icons to always
hide, restores the chevron. Again, it takes time to appear.

If it is a restriction, that workaround and more can be found here within
this small utility:
