Automate Turning Icon in Notification Area On - Windows 10 Enterprise

I've tried to Google this, but I guess I'm just not using the right terminology as I can't come up with an answer.

I'm looking for a way (command line, powershell, vbs script, group policy) that will make one of the icons in the notification area always show. (I'm talking about the area to the left of the time/date, where the power, network and volume typically always show).

I'm running Windows 10 Enterprise in an AD environment.

Just to make sure I'm explaining what I'm trying to do in an automated fashion correctly, here is what I do to do it manually:

RIght click on taskbar
Click Tasbar settings
Under "Notification area" click "Select which icons appear on the taskbar
In the resulting list, find the thing I want to show up all the time, and move the slider to "On"
Close out of settings

Thanks!

Thanks. The title of this article says Windows 7, and I need Windows 10. I'll try this, but don't think it'll work due to the changes.

I do not see any reason why it won't work, give it a try
