Life button battery and volume control missing in the notification bar

There is a week my life icon volume icon and the battery was no longer on my notification bar. I've looked everywhere to try to restore it. I can't adjust the volume of my computers, or see my autonomy. They simply buttons disappeared. I have no sound coming out of my computer when I try to listen to music or anything.

Hello JHOUCHILEI,

Thank you for using Microsoft Answers.  Right-click on the toolbar and select Properties, click the Notification tab.  There, select Volume and power.  That places the icon of volume and battery on your toolbar.

Thank you for using answers Forum. Please let us know how it works.

  • SMS preview missing in the notification bar.

    Hello

    I recently did the 5.1 update and followed with a factory reset in order to get a clean install. Everything runs smoothly until out of the SMS preview. Before my changes, I could read a text message, one line at a time as a glimpse into the notification bar. I must have missed something or been more cautious when faced with fresh settings I get is more that.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    In Lollipop, this has been changed. When you receive a text message and you use the pre-installed mail application, only the messaging icon will appear in your notification field and no floating text / scrolling as in the previous software. Unfortunately, I am not aware of all the 3rd party apps that have this kind of functionality, but there could be some app via Google game there.

  • Program volume control missing from the taskbar.

    MY VOLUMN CONTROL ICON IS MISSING FROM THE TOOLBAR. I TRIED TO CHECK THE BOX IN THE CONTROL PANEL, BUT IT'S ME GIVES AN ERROR MESSAGE "YOUR VOLUME CONTROL PROGRAM IS NOT INSTALLED" I FIXED USING XP DISCS, BUT IT IS NOT YET HERE. THIS IS PART OF THE OPERATING SYSTEM. I HAD ALSO LOST MY CALCULATOR AND GAMES. I HAVE RE-INSTALLED CALCULATOR AND ACCESSORIES SINCE THE ORIGINAL DISC GAMES ARE BACK BUT STILL NO VOLUMN CONTROL.  ANYONE KNOW WHAT THEN?

    The sndvol32.exe file is one of 3498 files that are monitored by the Windows File Protection System (if it works).

    Assuming that your volume control was previously working and you have uninstalled not really things...

    Even if you manually delete c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe, Windows File Protection should quickly and silently substitute a backup copy and put a message similar to the following in the XP system event log:

    Event type: Information

    Event source: Windows File Protection

    Date: 16/06/2010

    Time: 11:57:49

    Description:

    File replacement was attempted on the protected system file c:\windows\system32\sndvol32.exe. This file was restored to the original version to maintain system stability. The file version of the system file is 5.1.2600.0.

    See the date and time of this event?  I just deleted my file sndvol32.exe moments, and it is replaced almost instantly (no necessary CD in XP), so so he could go "missing" in the c:\windows\system32 folder and it must be replaced would require an effort unless something is wrong (which it probably is).  You can only delete even on purpose.

    Calc.exe is similarly - it requires some effort or other malfunction so he could come in fact really missing which means that something is not somewhere - if it worked before.

    Why don't search you your system for the file and see if it is in c:\windows\system32 or not.  If it's not and it worked before, you have another problem or something is wrong.

    Before you try to replace the file that should never be missed in the first place, you must first of all decent scanner for malware (since this problem with the sound control panel is such a common condition of malware),then when the scans are complete and clean, difficulty of problems.

    Do a few scans for malware, then when it's over difficult problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs at:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
