I booted into safe mode to run DDU so I could clean install new GPU drivers.
There's no clock or system tray when I load in safe mode!
Taskbar is there and functional but nothing on the right hand side at all.
I don't use safe mode very often but it was definitely there last time I used it

Reboot to normal mode if the clock and system tray return, check for file corruption. Then run clean boot. See if one of these steps will resolve the issue.
