Each time I power on my laptop and Windows starts, the ( ) icon appears on my toolbar. It disappears whenever I move the mouse over it. I haven’t installed any software that looks like this. Do anyone know what it is? Any suggestions would be really helpful! Thank you!

Launch Task Manager, navigate to the Startup section, and try to identify the icons by their descriptions.

I didn't locate it in the Control Panel under uninstall software.

Next, you can right-click the clock and select Customize Notification Icons. Then, browse the options and locate the desired icon along with its associated program name. You might spot it there.
