Windows 10: Is there anyway to have the Outlook Mail App indicate the number of unread emails from the...

The previous mail app would tell me how many unread emails I have from the icon in the task bar. If I had five unread emails there would be a little "5" at the top right of the mail app icon in the task bar. I've gone through the mail notification settings, windows notification settings and taskbar notification settings and turned on everything but none of that works. I'll get a pop up for a second on my screen when an email arrives but there's no counter on the email app icon telling me how many unread emails I have. I would even be happy if the app icon indicated I had any unread email, even if it doesn't specify the exact number. Is this not a feature of the current mail app?

Windows 10 Mail Indicates a Phantom Unread Message


I'm using the simple Windows 10 mail app. Under "Accounts" I have an IMAP mail account and it has no indicator (no number) next to the account name indicating number of unread mails. That makes sense because I have no unread mail in that account. It's a gmail based account, and when I access via the web, there's no unread mail shown there either.

However, when I click on the account and I am looking under Folders, the Inbox items has a "1" indicating there's one unread mail note. I can't find any unread mail in the Inbox. I've closed the program and restarted it, and tried resyncing, but the indicator is still there.

Any ideas on where this "phantom" unread count comes from?

Windows Mail Icon on Taskbar shows 1 Unread email, but all are read

Hi, I have been using Windows Mail for a couple of years now as my default client. Windows 10 version 21H1, X64 based. Running Windows Mail Version 16005.14326.20544.0 Yesterday, the Number '1' appeared on the Taskbar Icon, indicating an unread email or other notification like an update available etc. However, All messages have been read, and show as such. I accessed my Outlook email account online, and there were 2 messages showing as unread, so I read them, and All Outlook messages are read. But Mail Icon still showed '1' ? I have restarted my PC, and followed a few suggestions from online search of the issue, but none have removed the false notification. Does anyone know how to remove or reset this false notification please ?
