Can not find the button start or the taskbar (Windows XP)

I can't find the button start or the taskbar on my computer.   I ran antivirus program and in the process must have hidden these.  How can I post because I can't go to the start menu.  Unable to access by pressing ESC or in safe mode.

Hello

Here is some additional information...

  1. Right-click the Notification area, and then select "Properties".
  2. Open the tab of taskbar, uncheck the box marked "Hide inactive icons".
  3. Click 'OK' to save the changes and exit the Properties window.

Hope this information is beneficial.

Thank you

  • The desktop icon can not find the program

    I'm having a problem where when I click on my desktop icons they can not find the program that is associated with run.

    Most of them is related to sites Web that I often use, so I select Internet Explorer as the associated program then remember this radio button, but when I connect and get back in that I get the same error.

    I am running windows XP, I say this because I've posted this before, and I referred to a difficulty which will not work with this operating system.

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • I can not find the internet Explorer on my computer.

    I can not find the internet Explorer on my computer. To use it I have to go to corel draw, then the help and it will open to explorer 8. If I try to fown it loads, it won't let me. I got a virus and it is gone, but I can't use yet internet explore the right way.

    Hi Janie,

    The executable file for IE is called iexplore.exe.  You can click Start and then type iexplore in the search field.

    Microsoft has a tool to resolve this that should return the IE icon on the desktop - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/945402. Under the fix for me article, there is a button, you must click called Microsoft Fix it.  Click run in the file download dialog box. Follow the steps in the Wizard icon on the desktop to display Internet Explorer to create an Internet Explorer desktop icon.

    Answer him back if you try this method and let us know if it is your problem.  It is a relatively new tool and it would be nice to receive feedback on how it works.  There are several other applets fix it available for further questions.  More information can be found here: http://support.microsoft.com/fixit#tab0.

    Can not find the drivers for my keyboard, the printer or the infrared transmitter/receiver anywhere. I tried hp support and they want the money because my warranty ls model.

    If you use the keyboard that has been deilvered with the PC, there is no driver required. It's a keyboard usb standard. It there no you can replace it easily.

    Simply plug into a usb port before starting the desktop computer.

    Windows will recognize it and use built in drivers that are part of the operating system.

    For a printer, simply use the printer product number and the word support. Suport page should have the full features drivers that you need for most operating systems.

    Infrared transceiver.

    You need to be more specific on this one here.

    Help me please guys, if you can.

    Thanks in advance, Peter

    I had the same problem and now works properly. That's what I did:

    1 position (BIOS) setting to IDE compatible mode

    2. install XPP as usual.

    3. install the drivers for the chipset Intel (sp46692)

    4. download and run softpaq for Intel Matrix Storage Manager (sp45106)

    5. go to the controller Start > Run > devmgmt.msc > IDE ATA/ATAPI

    > Port controller 5 series/3400 Series 6 Chipset

    6. set to update manually the folder c:\swsetup\sp45106, with option "have a disk.

    7. Select "PCHM SATA AHCI Controller 6 port".

    Windows says it is not compatible, but it will be restarted from the nest

    8 restart the computer, and set its mode controller SATA (BIOS)

    9 complete! Windows does not boot ok

    I hope you understand my instructions: English is not my mother tongue and may be poorly written. In any case, it worked for me.

  • I had a fast PC program that keeps coming up as an error and I can not find the program on my PC?

    There is a Speedy PC Pro porgram on my computer keeps coming back as an error and I can not find the program or software

    any where on my computer to uninstall or remove. I don't know where it comes from. Please notify.

    If the "program not found" error message is associated with the Windows startup, another solution is to use the System Configuration tool and remove applications from the startup list.

    Here are the steps on how to do this:

    1. Move the cursor to the Start menu and then click on "Run".
    2. In the Open box, type msconfig
    3. Heat the Enter key
    4. Click the Startup tab
    5. Remove/disable all uninstalled applications in the startup list
    6. Move the cursor to the Start menu and then click on 'stop'. After that click on 'restart'.

    Hello Buzbybumble

    I looked into it further and found that all J611 Deskjet 3050 a models use the same software. So, you should be able to download and run the installation from the link below.
    Software HP Deskjet 3050 has complete features J611

    IMPORTANT: Make sure that the printer is not connected to the computer until the installation program ask you to do. Run the Setup and follow the instructions on the screen.

    If the printer is not yet seen, then choose the option "continue INSTALLATION WITHOUT CONNECTION NOW I WILL CONNECT the PRINTER LATER. A shortcut must be placed on your desktop and it will try to add a printer when it is executed.

  • Computer failure, hard drive readable: can not find the 5 Lightroom Catalog.

    Computer failure, hard drive readable: can not find the 5 Lightroom Catalog. Help appreciated.

    I used 5.3 LR on Win7, never pay attention in the name of the catalog used. My photo files were on the same physical hard disk D: partition.

    Now that I have a new computer Intel NUC, with Win7 installed on drive C: (SSD M.2), I plugged my old drive hard drive E: (old C :) and drive F (old d :))

    I have re-installed LR 5.3 and also upgraded to LR 6, , but the problem is that I can't find the catalog I was using with LR 5.3

    I searched for *.lrcat and see all previous catalogues lightroom starting with LR 2, 3, 4, 5, getting bigger and bigger, but not catalog 5 including the current date.

    The catalog would have another name or extension?

    I have the old C: drive. Is there a config file that would confirm where the catalogue is supposed to be?

    Help!

    HM, it is clear that it is not found on your old C: (so E :). )

    And there is no config file to tell where to find the catalog to Lightroom. It's just that the catalog is in the place you choose (most of the people chose to have the catalog to the location by default...).
