Looked everywhere - unable to find a solution.

Cannot add hidden icons to the taskbar. Trying to do so - Personalization - Taskbar - some of these settings are managed by your organization.

I'm the only user - administrator. Not seeing the 'some of your settings....' anywhere else.

Any input suggestions appreciated

settings are managed by your organization.

Why would you want to 'add hidden icons to the taskbar'? You would not see them. They would be hidden?

I think you see the 'Organisation' message when you have tweaked Windows and I think it only applies to 'Windows Pro' edition and not 'Windows Home' edition. It does not mean an actual organisation. It is just that 'Windows Pro' was designed for use in organisations with many computers that could be managed using Local Group Policy Editor (see photo) by an Administrator. Maybe you have tweaked Windows using this tool? In this case then you are the Administrator.

Apologies my post was not clear. I am using 11 Pro.

Have now 'found' the drag and drop method.

Thanks for your input.
