To force Windows 10 tray icons to be visible, you can adjust the taskbar settings. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar.

  2. From the context menu, select "Taskbar settings."

  3. In the Taskbar settings window, scroll down to the "Notification area" section and click on the "Select which icons appear on the taskbar" link.

  4. In the "Notification area icons" window, you'll see a list of system and application icons. Make sure the icons you want to be visible are set to "On" or "Show icon and notifications."

  5. If an icon is set to "Off" or "Hide icon and notifications," toggle the switch to turn it "On."

  6. Additionally, you can click on the "Turn system icons on or off" link to configure system icons such as the clock, volume, network, etc.

  7. Customize the visibility of system icons as per your preference.

  8. Once you have made the desired changes, close the windows.

After adjusting the taskbar settings, the tray icons should be visible in the Windows 10 taskbar. Keep in mind that some applications or system processes may have their own settings that override the taskbar settings. In such cases, you may need to adjust the individual application or process settings to ensure their icons are visible in the tray.

Note: The steps mentioned above are based on the default Windows 10 settings. The appearance and options may vary slightly depending on the version of Windows 10 and any customizations you have made.
