    Accidentally (I have it did not on purpose - I do not know if Windows did it without asking me) a few months ago, the START button and the taskbar got vertical to the right of the screen.  A technician came to the House and installed more memory in the computer. I asked to put the START/task bar on wallpaper - what service person did.  Now I find that I would prefer to START/vertical bar to the right of the screen again because I found out I'd rather that it this way.

  • How can I set the location of the WordPad window in Windows 7?

    When I open Wordpad in Windows 7, the location of the window is partially off the screen. I can drag the window back to the screen, but after I closed the window off the screen location is used the next time I run the Wordpad application. This happens with other applications as well, and it doesn't make a difference if I save a file or don't no when closing the application. With Wordpad, sometimes I can Alt + Tab to a different window, and when I return to Wordpad window is placed in the position of half-off-screen! The latter is sometimes, not always.

    This default location can change if I change the location of the taskbar, or auto-hide settings. If I resize the window Wordpad, the new size is persistent. This suggests that the geometry of the window is stored in the registry. Where? I would change it. Better yet, I wish that the geometry of the window remains the same after that I change it.

  • Impossible to position the taskbar at the bottom of the screen

    original title: I use the Vista operating system.  The taskbar is suddenly moved to the right side of the desktop.  The taskbar is unlocked.  I can't click on it and move it to the bottom.  Why?

    The first thing I checked was to see if the taskbar has been locked.  It wasn't.  I then tried to move it to the bottom of the desktop, but there was no response on the slider by clicking and trying to move it.  This just happened spontaneously.  He corrected himself once, then after a short period is returned on the right side.  What is going on.

    It has not responded to my problem, but he did put me on the right track.  I tried solution 1, but couldn't find any buttons location of the taskbar on the screen from the taskbar in the Properties window.  Not really want to do a restore, I put the cursor on the portion of the taskbar clock and clicked.  I clicked once again to get out of this window.  Then I moved just above the clock area, click right, held the click and tried to move the taskbar.  He moved.  Experimentally, I went the taskbar to the right edge and back.  Yet once, he said.  I then locked.

    So far, he concluded.  The problem all along has been to get the toolbar respond to, click and hold the cursor to allow passage.

    My experience is perhaps just a fluke, but it worked for me.

  • Gmail button (in internet explorer) keeps having moved to the right in my taskbar when I wasn't staying on the left (that's why I first open). How can I get the taskbar buttons to stop randomly to reorganize and stay in order?

    Gmail button (in internet explorer) keeps having moved to the right in my taskbar when I want to keep it on the left (that's why I first open).  How can I get the taskbar buttons to stop randomly to reorganize and stay in order?  I'm talking about the buttons on list of my open applications and documents in Windows Vista.  The bar tasks are "locked", but the button of the window open with gmail in internet explore reappears suddenly in the good moments apparently random.

    It is in the middle part of the taskbar (what I found online so far is on the start menu, the quick launch area or area/system tray of notification, the location of the taskbar in full, either about grouping taskbar - I disabled because I would like to separate).  Can anyone help?  I don't understand why this is happening (or why microsoft would never do).

    Lock the taskbar that it prevents to be moved elsewhere on the office and maintains the different sections where they are - it does not block the tabs showing what is open where they were when they were opened.  There is no control for this function.  Maybe if you uncheck similar taskbar buttons group it will help, but I honestly don't know (and fear he won't make any difference - it may even make things worse).  This also happens to me and I was unable to find an answer.  I think that there are more than just random, but I can't telll you why he moves the legs periodically (sometimes it works fine all day and other days it happens almost immediately).  But still, there is no control for this function, so there is no way to tell him to keep a specific order or to lock an established order, once it has been created.  I suspect that it happens because the notification area icons appear and hide and new programs open and close and which changes the amount of space available and so he rearranges things so that they match and apparently does not always consider the original sequence in which the elements have been added.  Maybe if you remove the Quick Launch toolbar and then add again, the order will reset (but that I know not - probably not in the original sequence, which I doubt is logged nowhere - it did not work when I tried it).

    Unfortunately, I don't have a solution to this problem (and I spend a little time looking for even before myselff posed the question) and do not believe that there is a.  It is also unfortunate that you can't move them so they can be put back in the right order if they change.  I don't think that there is nothing wrong with your system or that it is something that can be repaired or fixed - it's just the way it is and we just have to live with it.  I don't know any 3rd party software that controls the order of tabs open in the taskbar program (but you can check out Bing, Gooogle,www.tucows.comand www.download.com to see if I'm wrong on this - here n "t all when I looked trying to solve this problem for my own system).

    I'm sorry it wasn't what you wanted to hear, but it's like that.  I don't know if it's different in Windows 7.

    Good luck!

  • How can I move or move the 'Show desktop' to another location in my taskbar?

    I'm running Windows 7 pro 64 bit on a Lenovo Thinkpad T520. Any suggestions on how I can move or move the 'show desktop' icon in my taskbar. Please note that this already exists on the right side of my taskbar. I would like to add it or move it to the left side.  Thank you

    The only way next to what has been offered, is if you put the taskbar on the left side of your screen instead of the lower part.

  • Use F'fox on Windows 7, when I have several windows open, why the relative location of these windows in the taskbar sometimes change?

    In general, I have three windows open Firefox, each with several tabs. Firefox itself is pinned to the Windows taskbar. Some of the tabs are set to reload.

    The behavior that I find strange is that the window that initially had the means of the taskbar sometimes migrating to the first position. This behavior can be controlled, or the less predicts?

    Thank you

    Hi Avocet,
    I guess this change because it's the last window to load a new page or which has been highlighted. If this happens on one of the tabs autoload, that might explain it.

  • Movement of the taskbar to a different location on the desktop

    My son has accidentally done something to the taskbar. It is on the bottom and it is now vertical on the right side. All I can do is make it narrower. How do go back to the bottom of the screen?

    Although by default, the taskbar is displayed on the bottom of the screen,
    It can be on any of the sides on what you prefer. To move any
    side to side, simply click an unused portion and drag
    where you want it. Don't forget to click inside it, not on the edge.
    by clicking on the edge and dragging will resize not move.

    If it does not move, it can be locked. In this case, right click on it
    and uncheck "Lock the taskbar", then try again.

    Moreover, with the screen monitors wide today, I prefer the taskbar
    on the left or the right of the screen. I think that allows a better
    use of real estate than have it at the bottom of screen.

  • Is the monitor of imagery needed on the taskbar if you do not print? How many...

    I have checked old solutions here and do not have quite the same issue, I would like to ask.

    I have the Solution Center on the old pc with XP. Works well, thank you, and several resources always help the XP'. I also have a HP with 8. How many resources it takes and don't forget that it is a netbook pc which tend to be more slow start. All I could eliminate might help.

    My question is on the XP that monitor must be loaded every time if you do not plan to print? Could not be loaded just before the solution center if that was the program that I run?  Thank you very much!

    Hi @jnepoore,

    Now, I'm not 100% certain, but I'm sure that the digital imaging monitor is not necessary. However it helps maintain a constant communication between the printer and the software. Take a look at what I found:

    Posted by rnfolsom

    Picardjc wrote that "Digital imaging monitor is part of the HP software that communicates with your HP printer. This program allows to read the ink levels, get an out of paper message, scan from the device to the computer and so on. Its not necessary, but it will limit the use of printers if you delete. "Understood. But for my printer HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809a, what is the purpose of having the digital imaging monitor icon in the taskbar Windows7 sp1 of the Notification area (aka system tray)? My A809a is NOT an all-in-one that includes a scanner; It is simply a very good printer. When I start to print something, if you need ink or paper, that information is displayed on the screen of my computer. So I ask again: why is the icon of monitor digital imaging on the taskbar? I clicked on at the time of this icon (I not print anything, but as usual, the printer is turned on), and nothing happened. R.N. (Roger) Folsom

    P.S., Below I'll post some other discussions (with links to their locations) of the digital imaging monitor, I discovered before finding this site on which I am writing. There are a variety of opinions on what makes the digital imaging monitor. HP Digital Imaging Monitor is for HP director system tray access. This is necessary if you want to use the buttons of all-in-one on a HP printer all in one to scan documents or transfer photos from a camera manually. Closing the icon monitor HP digital imaging in the Windows system tray can cause the HP all-in-one to lose part of its scanning features and not the connection error message. In this case, you can restore all functionality by restarting the computer or by starting the HP digital imaging monitor.

    Re: WITHDRAWAL HP Digital Imaging Monitor Systray? [Edited] 03/08/2011 14:05 - edited? 03/08/2011 14:08 Yes, it is safe to remove. In my view, it is usually in the program group under start / all programs / startup. Simply navigate under the Start button, right-click on it and delete! If it is not there, then remove it from the registry: run regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and delete it from the list in the right pane. If she is not there, then try hkey_current_user\\software\\microsoft\\windows\\currentversion\\run it's better than using msconfig and uncheck it. In my opinion, msconfig must always be set to Normal startup. Your printer will always print without that annoying obstructive utility called Digital Imaging Monitor. Ciao!

    I know that the information is specific to Windows 7, but the bottom line is, no, there is no need to run all the time. Registry keys are significantly different for XP as they are for Windows 7 while blurb does not apply. I just copied the post in its entirety for you to read through.

    Another thing to consider is uninstall the software and then download and install the base driver.

    Please let me know if this is useful, or if you have any other questions. I'm happy to do my best to help.
