• Volume and network of the missing icons in the taskbar

  Most of the time, not always, when I turn on my computer I have no network and volume icons in the taskbar.  When I right click on the taskbar and go to properties, then the notification area, sometimes I am able to click on them and then click 'apply', but other times they are grey. I never had this problem before, but I had to completely restore the computer recently.  My OS is Vista Home Premium. Thanks for any help.

• Pavilion P6207c: Hp mediasmart empty icon in the taskbar and icon missing in hp dock

  I restarted my computer and my HP Mediasmart icon in the taskbar is empty, when I click on it windows says it can't open because that its been moved, renamed or deleted. But the show task up if I right click on it like watch a dvd, listen to mp3's, see, modify or download photos, see modify or download videos. (all links in the task too much work) Then trying to understand the problem, that I thought I could basically icon/link to pull a bit of my HP Dock in the taskbar hoping it would be duplicate and appear in the taskbar. But to the contrary after leaving the dock and release the mouse button, it disappeared. How do I trouble the white icon and pick up the other icon in the dock? I pulled the HP Mediasmart icon directory .exe file and it is stuck in the dock, but it works the same. The original had an arrow below and if I clicked it, a drop-down list with all tasks would come down. With that I pulled from the directory that I have to click on it and then a new bar appears with different icons for each task.

  Well I solved the problem with the taskbar, I downloaded the hp mediasmart smartmenu, went into the directory and PIN to the taskbar. But I still can't one of the docking station will work as before.

  @enimen2 ,

• Missing icons on the toolbar State system after having killed explorer.exe

  Hello

  I found a possible problem with explorer.exe

  Here's the thing

  I had a lot of apps minimized in the system tray

  I killed explorer.exe from the task (just to avoid end the session) Manager

  When I started explorer.exe once again, these applications on the system tray where gonne.

  I could see their processes from the Task Manager running, but I couldn't get them.

  Someone had this problem? or is this a known problem?

  Just in case, a process has been my modem ZTE connection manager and the other was java (running jdownloader)

  Thank you very much

  PS: My English is not very good so sorry if I mistaked something

  Hello
  This isn't the fault of explorer.exe. The problem you are having is because the application does not know to put its icon in the Explorer system tray.

  Edit...

  ... because he never had the signal that explore was closing (finished it) and the program is not wasting cycles (little) CPU to see if it is in the taskbar. When Explorer restarts, programs can be launched again, but if they were still running, they could not call their function to insert their new icon in the taskbar. You will find that other good programs to behave in fact it automatically.

• Two of the application window are enabled at the same time when I click on an icon in the taskbar of an application.

  When I open a window of the application in Windows 7, and then press the keyboard windows, if I click on an icon in the taskbar to another window, I find that each of the two windows is activated. I use Spy ++ to monitor both windows messages in this scenario and esteem that both windows obtained the WM_ACTIVATE message. If I right click on an icon in the task bar of the window of the second just after press the windows key, I find that the first window will activate everything first and soon to be switched off.  What is a feature of the taskbar of Windows 7 or a bug in Windows 7?

• How can I add the weather icon to the taskbar to be next to the time?

  Try as I might, I can't figure this out.  I would like to add the weather icon to the taskbar.  I want it to be next to the time, so it is always displayed.  How can I do this?  I also want to remove some of the icons that appear in the part of the notification of the taskbar.  Yet once, I can't do it.

  To add items to the taskbar in Windows XP, do one click right, choose Properties, select "Show quick launch", then OK. Now you can add existing shortcuts to the quick launch area (which is pretty much a location allows you to customize your own shortcuts), or you can right click on the quick launch are to open its 'file', then create new shortcuts to here (right click-> new-> shortcut).

  To remove the part of the taskbar notification icons: If you are indeed referring to the notification area near the clock, try right-clicking on the icon and look for an option to delete/remove/disable. Not all icons will have such an option. Additional details on the notification in Windows XP bar can be found here. If you are actually referring to quick launch (next), and then activate it as I've described in the paragraph above, then you should be able with the right button and then remove them.
