Menu taskbar properties and start

There is usually a monitor in the botton left bar that allows you to get on the desktop without having to minimize all windows. I can't find.

Restore point:

Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  • option button Aero peek is inexcessable in menu taskbar properties and departure

    This option box is already checked, but it is inexcessable to change.  It is a light shade of gray and cannot be changed.  I tried to enable desktop overview

    with aero peek, as recently, my task bar disappeared after the installation of google chrome. She has been activated and does not.  After you have uninstalled chrome, I learned to use F11; which allowed the taskbar online, but with it among other limitations.

    You can try the solution from this article: fixes for Windows Vista file association (I know, it's for Vista, but it contains exactly the same values in the registry for .lnk)

    But I'm confused because this issue should only concern the specific account, if this account contains more extra value in the registry: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.lnk\UserChoice (this path should not exist in the registry). I mentioned only the key main ".lnk" with two subkeys: "OpenWithList" and "OpenWithProgids", I understand that you do not have this key "UserChoice"?

    I've recently been tweaking and accidentally got rid of my explorer.exe file, (I think that I sent to my trash and maybe deleted it?). Once I realized that I just typed as a new task and it reappeared.  The problem I have is that since then I had no toolbar or start menu.  I tried to access it through the control panel that does not work; I tried Ctrl Esc, which does not work, I tried everything I can think of? What's weird, that's all my desktop icons are great, and for some reason if I have Ghost click my mouse in the lower right of the screen I open random programs usually on my toolbar, I can even drag on my desk.  I tried to find common ground, if my toolbar is there somewhere?, do to slide it back on my screen, but it was done without success.  Another thing is when I start my computer in safe mode, my toolbar appears with my Start menu icon?  Anyone know what may be the problem?  I am running windows vista family premium. operating system: 64-bit

  • Slate Plus 7 displays the menu at startup and start in safe mode

    Hello

    I just bought a Tablet HP Slate 7 more. When I got to the top of the Tablet for the first time, he showed a small green menu at the top left that contains the following options:

    Start normally

    Fastboot Protocol

    Core recovery

    Forced collection

    However, I'm unable to go with the volume buttons.

    After the Tablet starts in safe mode, and I noticed that the volume keys up and down do not work.

    Is there something I can do?

    Complete model number: Slate 7 more 4200eg

    It shouldn't do.

    Take a read of this document from HP. I have recommended to perform a factory reset.

    If the factory reset does not help, then it is definitely time to Contact HP or the dealer where you bought your 7 Slate.

  • Volume icon disappeared from my system tray, and the option is grayed out (don't let me check it out) in the taskbar and start menu properties screen /Notification

    I don't know how to recover my volume icon - can anyone help?  Thank you!

    Hello

    If one of the system icons is out, you can reactivate the as follows:

    Right-click on the taskbar and select Properties. This will bring up the tab "properties of menu taskbar and start. It's where you mentioned, it is gray. It is very well...  From there, you can click on Customize button in the icon section. Look for the icon that you are missing, and check the status. The type of report should read "Hide icon and notifications", change that to "Show icon and notifications".

    If this does not resolve the issue most likely you have a problem with group policy on your machine. This can be corrected by following the instructions on the following link:

  • Taskbar and Start menu keeps disappearing

    My taskbar and Start Menu keeps disappearing and I cannot get it back. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Original title: taskbar problem

    Thanks for the suggestions... I used method 1 and 2. Method 1 does not work and the method 2 worked until it got to the point when it asked me to insert my installation CD... I don't not. This computer did not come with a CD. Installation info are on a D drive. How do you it?

    Hello EJHX,

    You can do this by changing the special folder of the Source registry path. You can use the Update to do, or you can do it manually.

    [1] method: The use of tune-up to set up special folders

    • Open the integrator of the tune-up or the State Bar Directory
    • Select the Customize Windows from Start Tune-Up Center
    • Click options preferences and behaviors
    • In the left pane, select system under Administration
    • In the right pane, select special folders tab controller
    • Select "Windows configuration files" in the "Special feature" column in the list, then click on 'change '.
    • Find the folder and click OK when finished
    • Click OK again to save the settings
    [2] method: Using Windows Registry Editor to configure the SourcePath value

    • On the start menu, select "Run."... »
    • Insert: regedit.exe
    • In the left pane, navigate to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft Computer\ My
      \Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup
    • In the right pane, double-click the value SourcePath "' which is a string value
    • Insert the desired location, and then click OK to save the settings
    NOTICE: You can change the setting back after you are done after the execution of SFC.
    Thank you
    Have a nice day :)
  • Windows 7 taskbar and start menu large icons are either missing (empty by default) or do not show the right program.

    I use Windows 7 Home Premium on an AMD Athlon (TM) II X 4 630 2.80 GHz with 6.0 GB of RAM (64 bit OS). PC is up-to-date with the latest updates and use Norton Anti Virus.

    I used this PC for several months with no problems. After doing some research in my menu of the taskbar Windows Explorer and start icons have become corrupted. The links always work but do not show the right program.

    I tried several things to fix this. I removed everything in the start menu and taskbar, rebooted, added a few back but the problem still exists. I deleted the icon cache file (renamed to db.old), restarted, problem still exist. I made a recovery of a checkpoint system before the problem was still not fixed. When I go to small icons, the problem disappears. The problem only seems to appear when you use large icons in the bar of tasks and the start menu.

    Based on what I've tried so far is there any other suggestions on how to fix this?

    This tutorial is to rebuild the icon cache when the cache is corrupt.

    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/49819-icon-cache-rebuild.html
