Cannot delete programs open in the taskbar Windows XP Professional IE8

Earlier today, I could right click Open site or the program in the taskbar and a drop-down list appears that allowed me to click, 'delete '. Now, when I do that, there is no drop-down list, to remove the program (or Web site).

Are you want to remove the program?

    Windows 8.  All programs open in a small window. How to vary the size of this window, or alternatively, to have the new window opens automatically full size?

    Thank you

    Hi Matt

    Yes, I have had this problem since I bought the computer.

    However, I tried your suggestion and, guess what, IT WORKED!

    I am so happy.  Thanks for your help. Something so simple but if you don't know what to try then it can be so frustrating.

    Incidentally (and this is not a complaint) by clicking on desktop icons now open full-screen windows, which suits me very well, but when I hit the screen button "reduced" on a window then all windows to open in reduced format, but ALL are EVEN smaller.  I'll play a little more but thanks again. You have made my day.

  • Program opens off the screen in a multiple monitor on Windows XP configuration

    Original title: I URGENTLY need help with an XP several problem of monitor!

    Our company has recently migrated to a new office and I got stuck with the displacement of all the computer systems to the new office. To make a long story short, one of our employees use four 4 monitors. After many difficulties, I finally got the monitors working as a horizontal screen with scrolling smoothly from left to right.

    However, I have a BIG problem. One of the programs of this employee uses disappears (flies off the screen right most) when maximized. I can bring it by moving to the right screen, but I can't understand how to do that a permanent solution. ANYONE - your help would be appreciated. Is it a matter of swapping the screens? It was rather difficult to get properly prepared screens because it did not meet the order, I tried. Anyway, these people are rare flowers and get bent out of shape, if the program opens on the designated window. Is there a way to specify which window it can open on whether it can be remedied at all times?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Petrovsky9000,

    Have you tried disabling 3 additional screens and then by testing the application? If you need help of deactivation and activation of the monitors, you can use the following as a guide:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/Setup/hwandprograms/monitors.mspx

    If you always lose the application when the window is maximized, try the following:

    1. With 1 active display, maximize the application.
    2. In the display properties window, set the resolution of the single screen for a step down from where it is now and apply the changes.
    3. Accept the new resolution, and now to see if your application is in the center of the screen.
    4. Now go ahead and set the resolution to what it was and and apply the changes.
    5. Make sure the application is always visible and maximized correctly. If so, go ahead and turn the other 3 views and see if everything works properly.
    Here are a few steps that solved the problem for my own systems in the past. I hope this helps!

  • The program display open in the taskbar

    I use Vista to the Windows Welcome page.  At first the buttons in window open program were justified left, similar to other versions of Windows. Then one day, they were smaller and good reason, isn't a problem, except that even if the task bar is almost empty, only 2 will show at a time.  If I have more than 2 programs open at the same time I must then scroll down to find and switch to the third program.  I do not remember anything, but if there is a way to show more than 2 programs at the same time, I like to restore.
    Thank you

  • Is it possible to add a HIGHLIGHT / COLOR for a browser window open on the taskbar?

    Hello. We use Outlook Web APP.
    At the same time, we have several windows open on the taskbar.
    Is it possible to be able to highlight or maybe 'color' expressly only this browser window is no longer visible among all the other open windows?

    Thank you.

    I don't think that it is possible to set a background color the buttons of the label on the Windows taskbar-specific because this bar is under the control of the Windows operating system.

    What is displayed above is to set a specific color to tabs in a Firefox window.

    Alas...

    As the forums MS Answers does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.

    Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Click Start, run and enter the following command:

    regsvr32 appwiz.cpl

    Click OK and you should see a message like this:

    DllRegisterServer in successful appwiz.cpl

    Restart and see how things look now.

  • Error Msg: cannot open the file "Windows XP Professional - 000004.vmdk.

    The hard drive on my iMac crashed while my virtual machine is running.  When I try to open the virtual machine 'suspended', I get the following error message: could not open the file "Windows XP Professional - 000004.vmdk"; The system cannot find the specified file.  This file is listed in the contents of the packaging of the XP machine, but it notes the date, the iMac has crashed, which is the last day of work of the virtual machine.  I have read through discussions and tried a few things from the knowledge base, but I can't go past the error msg for the virtual machine to run.  Any suggestions?

    After selecting OK, I then received the second attached message, "Current Message.png", which reads... "your virtual machine has not returned because of an error.  If you believe that the error is correctable and you want to keep the suspended state, so you can correct the mistake, after that the virtual machine is turned off, select Preserve.  To ignore the waking state, select reject. »

    I didn't do anything since getting this second message because I do not know which to choose.

    In this case I'd throw away them.

    If after following your excellent detailed instructions & explanation (thank you!), here is what happened...

    As the machine has begun to resume in a suspended state, that asked me if I moved or copied and I selected, copied.

    In cases like this (restore a Machine virtual sauvegardΘ) the correct answer to this question is "I moved it" even thought "I copied it" seams more logical, it is not the right answer but with the advent of the second error message, not caused by the answer to the first question, no answer would have mattered.

    (if I can just get my prospects for work with this virtual machine files, your help would be invaluable!)

    This Virtual Machine is always recoverable, however if you are only interested in the recovery of data from the user then after reading the following quit VMware Fusion and try to mount the virtual disk to the Virtual Machine using the information below.

    Take a look at: VMware Fusion (menu bar) > help > Search > type VMDKMounter, and then select use VMDKMounter to mount a virtual drive as a Mac Volume

    Notice, ignore the parts on "to add support for reading / writing to NTFS volumes, you need to install NTFS - 3G separately." as it is not necessary for recovering files within the VM using VMDKMounter, because you only need read access to retrieve data from the user.

    After obtaining your user data disassemble the virtual hard disk on the desktop and then after that you want to retrieve the VM using methods from another just let know us and additional directions can be given.

  • Right click on the taskbar Windows XP and auto-hide is now missing as an option

    Original title: when a right click on the taskbar programs

    After right-clicking on program icons on the taskbar the separator for other area of the task bar became uneven. There was like a stage that has been created instead of a straight line and the Hide button automatically went. What I was doing was checking to see what programs might be arrested if necessary during a download or install a program.  After that I closed and open then windows the taskbar was back to normal but Autohide disappeared. Auto hide has been giving me problems is not there when windows open at first, but after about an hour 1/2, he appears as usual. It is possible that if you install a program that does not correctly that other functions may be lost even after you uninstall the program?

  • Firefox does not appear (it will be 'open', although it seems that it is open in the taskbar)

    I don't know if it's a coincidence that he himself has updated to 37.0, but it must be...

    When I click the task bar on Firefox and on the desktop icon, it opens on the taskbar, when I select the taskbar it shows even Firefox loaded Google (my default Web page)... But it never occurred to the screen.

    I have:
    -Windows 8.0 (No 8.1 and I'm not on the upgrade because it works better than 8.1)
    -Noscript add-on/plugin, or more
    -the drivers up to date

    I tried:
    -Uninstall and reinstall the version the most recent (37.0)
    -Uninstall 37.0 and installation of Firefox Web site archive 36.0
    -Restart my computer after install
    -Disabling service maintenance on installation

    I "allow" - ed the windows popup install twice and it does not help.
    The first time, it tries to open, she went to the yellow background on the taskbar to open programs, you have not yet used.
    However, when I click on it nothing comes on the screen. When I select always watch here my homepage. I can't do the thing in firefox update because I can't even display. I don't get the error messages on my computer, which is weirder. I updated and ran windows defender full scan and found nothing (but it is not surprising to "defender", lol).

    Once he opens the first time, even open another page opens nothing. Then it crashes and does close, even if you right click and you try to close all the windows... I have to use the Task Manager to close at the end of task...

    I don't know how to open the 'xpi' convenience store thing, sorry...

    And no whining, but why is - it so suddenly broken XD... And more important still, how in the world I can't come back to work? I use this terrible chrome I got lucky to have right on my computer already, which I only got to see one thing a long time ago and I forgot I even had Chrome... And as much as I hate to use chrome, it is actually works perfectly for me now... Thank you for any help will be much appreciated...

    The Firefox window is sometimes "off screen" somehow. Often, you can force it to appear on the screen by right clicking on the thumbnail image just above the taskbar and choose expand. Does it work?

    A possible cause for this is that the file that stores the positions and sizes of window is corrupt.

    #1 method: If you can get a zoomed window:

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old as well.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    #2 method: If you can not get a Firefox window for all:

    Close Firefox by right clicking the icon in the taskbar > close all windows.

    Using the Run dialog box (windows key + R) or search from the start menu (bar (or, in Windows 8 may bar charms bar research?) type or paste the following and press ENTER to drill down to the profiles folder):

    %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles

    Here you can see a folder - in this case, double-click that - or more than one case - in this case, double-click on in what looks like the most recently updated.

    Scroll down and rename xulstore.json to something like xulstore.old. If you see a file named localstore.rdf, rename this to localstore.old as well.

    Launch Firefox back up again. Windows normally appear again?

    Thank you! Your thing 'out of scope' brought me exactly what I need! I realized it was broken because of my second monitor/TV... It wasn't "on" the TV, but because he was off it broke somehow... So, once I've restarted BOTH on, she came back to my main screen/monitor (no tv). I don't know why he did it, but he must have crashed on my main screen because the TV was turned off... Strange...

  • Control Panel opens to the taskbar, but does not open

    Whenever I try to open Control Panel, it opens on the taskbar, but when I click it, it does nothing. I tried to restore by clicking and clicked right, to optimize and minimize, but nothing works.  It does this for all programs of the control panel.  I can't display preferences or options of the control panel.  Someone please help.

    I tried to restore by clicking and clicked right, to optimize and minimize, but nothing works.

    3 may not be available at the same time.   While we were inactive?   Who will tell you what State was the window.    In addition, if expand wasn't available, but has not shown a window, then became unavailable which suggests that the window was projected on another monitor.   In this case, you will need to press Shift-Win-CursorRight back.

    • Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, and then double-click Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    • You can open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try to disable the Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security].
