• Microsoft Security Essentials icon, absent from the taskbar after restarting Windows XP

  original title: lack of Windows XP icons after restart

  After that I restarted my antivirus, Microsoft Security Essentials icon is missing from the taskbar. It also happened when I have ESET NOD32 installed. When I disable the SSDP Discovery Service, in the section of the Admin, it will appear. But when I go back and set it to automatic, it will still be absent.

  For all that is you probably not need to have running SSDP Discovery Service, for security reasons almost always disable this service on any system that I put in place.

• Update Vista 64 Bit SP 2 remove icons from the taskbar for the power and sound.

  When I installed the update to Vista SP2, my power and Volume icons disappeared from the taskbar. When I went to set the display for the Menu Taskbar properties, the option to do so is grayed out.  Go to the control panel to change the power options, it's annoying, but I can live with that because I do not often change. But having to go through the control panel to adjust the volume is a container of the slow cooker. How to view again?

  Hi old giza,.

  Thank you for using answers Forum.

  I suggest you to re - install the driver for your sound card, this should restore function.

  You can also consult the Web site of the manufacturer for an updated Vista driver.

  I hope this helps.

• I am running windows xp sp3, the volume icon disappears from the taskbar on each reboot or shutdown/startup.kindly, help any permanent solution known.

  Hello!
  I am running windows xp sp3, the volume icon disappears from the taskbar on each reboot or shutdown/startup.kindly, help with any permanent solution known.i should go to the control panel and to recover it again whenever I turn my on.kindly advice, someone machine me a solution permanently this problem.i want to stay always on the taskbar the volume icon.
  the honest answer is expected... Thank you!

  Hello

  Try this:

  Control Panel - device - sounds Manager - note manufacturer device name and info on the graduating model.
  Double click and get the date and version of the driver (if 06 are dates, you use the default windows driver). Now
  Click the DRIVER UPDATE (this can not find anything because MS is far behind the certification of drivers). Now LAW
  CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Now, go to the manufacturer of the system and recover the last pilot audio/Hi-Fi as a fall.

  Download it - SAVE - go to where you put it - RIGHT CLICK top - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT

  Now do the same for the manufacturer of the device (the one that made the device - if you were using the default windows
  you might need to look in the Device Manager - his new driver).

  Often, you will need to run the sound card drivers several times to get the latest version installed and will appear in
  Manager - Sound. This is because they make back the drivers one at a time and then finally install the
  most recent. Look in the Device Manager to be sure that you have installed the version of the driver is the one showing, if not
  run the driver again (reset each time) until the shows a correct.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• Cannot pin or loose most of the things from the taskbar / / Win7

  Hi people, I have an apparently strange issue where I can't PIN or loose most of the things in my taskbar. The generic search has many similar situations but none of them seemed exactly the same and none of the listed solutions worked for me or seemed appropriate.

  Symptoms/findings

  • When you drag the icon 'Documents' from the library of Windows Explorer in the taskbar for example, I see "Pin to Windows Explorer" as expected.
  • Nothing else seems to work like / expected.  There is no context of rt - click on "Pin to taskbar" anywhere including the icons on the desktop or the start menu.
  • I can't for example remove Visual Studio from the taskbar.  (I must have had it there somehow in the past.)
  • "PIN to Start Menu" appears for most / all of the selections.  It's just pin/detach from the task bar which seems to be down.

  Any ideas?

  Here is the answer!

  (courtesy of a guy in my office support office)

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer

  Here was an entry that he skipped.  I don't remember exactly what it was, something like "NoPinTaskBar".

• Start icon disappears from the taskbar. Command prompt concludes that he cannot fix corrupted files.

  My power icon disappeared from my taskbar after a reboot. Following the advice of the Forum I turned on command prompt and asked the sfc/scannow.

  After a long search, I received notification that there were a few corrupted files and not all could be fixed. This had occurred previously in 2012.

  After a security alert, security, I downloaded the program named Emet. After reading more below in the Microsoft forum, I found the comments which Emet

  may damage files. I decided to uninstall Emet. When I finished that I discovered that the Emet icon has disappeared from the taskbar along

  with the battery icons and a few other icons. I took my Asus laptop at Best Buy and the tech there called a Microsoft service don't. and

  has got instructions to restore the missing icons using the appropriate record. It was in summer 2012. When I stopped my laptop Sunday, December 21, 13

  and then reopened Tuesday, December 23, 13 I found that, once more, my power icon had disappeared from the notification area. The correspondent

  subprogrammes in the control panel for the management of the icons in the notification area were inoperative for the icon of power and a few others. This

  was the exact situation I had in 2012, about 16 months ago.

  After failing to solve the problem with the command prompt, I thought I would ask for help. For the moment, I managed without going through the power icon

  presented at the center of mobility in the office and after having pinned the control panel to the taskbar on the right.

  Hi Ronald,.

  When you first start a new computer, the operating system typically runs Startup service initializations that can take anywhere from one to six hours to finish, depending on which applications are preloaded on the computer. Make sure that you give the operating system sufficient time to finish these Startup service initializations until you stop or restart the computer. This problem generally not happen once the operating system has completed initialization of all before background services is restarted.

  I suggest you refer to the following article which has a few registry tweaks to solve the problem. Please follow the steps and check out them.
