So for no reason at all, a number 1 started to appear on top of the gmail symbol in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. In the process of trying to remove it I removed the the icon completely from the taskbar. Now try I as I might I can't manage to get it back. Also I would be like to be notified when there is new mail as well. I went to the settings and set it to notify, before the icon was removed and still it didn't notify me. This problem all started when that mysterious 1 appeared on top of the icon for no reason at all.

Actually it wasn't because I deleted all messages and still it (the mysterious number 1) remained. Others have also complained about it . It is some "bug" in the gmail and I suspect that it needs to be reinstalled to get rid of it.
The thing is, that I think that I might have accidentally deleted it ,because I can't find it in my programs. I still have it though on my desktop but not in my programs.
That may be so however I can't see it among my programs and am unable to place it's icon on my start up task bar, like I had it before. It's this mysterious number, that appeared out of no where, that has caused all this trouble. I also stated above it wasn't indicating an unread message.
Look under apps. Can you show a screenshot of the icon?
No, I don't see the icon
