OneDrive status icon missing

[bertopl]

my OneDrive status icon in the system tray disappeared. I believe it was after the September updates. I've finally come around to try to get it back and no luck. tried rebooting, OneDrive troubleshooter, uninstalling / reinstalling the updates and still no icon. OneDrive is actually working, I see files being sync'd in the Metro app, just no way to see the status of the sync at the desktop which I rely on. does anyone have any other suggestions?

Go to your desktop, click on the little up arrow in the notification area, click customize, find the onedrive icon and select show icon and notifications. That should make the icon always show in desltop mode in the notifications area....

always have all icons showing so I don't have the arrow. funny thing is, playing around with showing / hiding icons in the system tray, OneDrive isn't even in the list of icons that can be shown or hidden. still haven't found a fix yet.
