Hello,

I am having a problem getting the Network icon to display in the system tray in the Guest Account. I also can't click to check it in Properties under System icons. It is grayed out. I know this is an issue that has been solved many times, but this one is different because it is in my Guest Account and I can't edit the registry. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Guest account has very limited capablity. The icon is not there so that one cannot make changes to the network settings etc.
In that case Create a standard user account for others.

agreed totally with ikunu, but you may ( if you really must) be able by digging around in the policy party of the users system to get that icon to appear but as Ikunu says you will be negating part of the reason for the guest account, which is to prevent unauthorised users changing things.
