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.

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.

    Hello

    Please contact Microsoft Community. I understand that start button on the taskbar does not not at the opening with the mouse, it works but when touch use. I've surely you will help solve this problem.

    To better understand the issue, I would need more information on your side.

    1. The problem occurs when you use another mouse?
    2. What is the number and the model of the computer and the mouse?
    3. Did you the latest changes on the computer before this problem?

    This problem might have occurred because of these reasons:

    1. Missing updates of Windows and the device driver updates.
    2. Conflict between third-party applications.
    3. Corrupt system files.

    Try the steps listed here and see if it helps:

    Method 1:

    If the problem does not occur when you use another mouse, I suggest you to download and install all Windows Update available including optional updates. You can also install the last mouse driver\Software from mouse manufacturer website and check if it helps.

    Method 2:
    If the problem occurs when you use a different mouse, I suggest to start the computer using safe mode and check if the problem occurs or not. If this isn't the case, I suggest you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

    How can I move the Start button in the taskbar? Vista 32 bit

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you can not move the Start button in the taskbar. This feature is by design.

  • Start button fills the taskbar

    I have the screen task bar on the side of me, and the Start button is stretched downwards to cover the whole thing, it looks like a green sign instead of the taskbar. My computer has been infected by a malware called "malware protector" immediately before what has arrived, and at startup I now get a message saying

    "Error loading c:\windows\inilicakenakohod.dll".

    The specified module could not be found. »

    I suspect this is related to the malwear when I Googled it this morning and follow-up of the results of the search, I was immediately infected again.

    I tried to adjust the options in the start menu with the size of the icons, layout style, and nothing has changed. I had a few massages in saying that all programs could not fit on the screen.

    I tried to restore the system, but he tells me that he cannot restore as nothng has changed

    I am running a fully updated version (as of May 30, 2011) of Windows XP. I was running Kaspersky Internet Security, but after having been infected with the malware and it is undable to help, I swapped for CA antivirus and Malwarebytes Anti Malware

    The problem is not present when I boot in safe mode

    Follow these instructions, and fix any remaining problems.

    I think you should do the MBAM and SAS scans (referenced in the background) first, then to clean the remnants of the infection.  I had read all this completely through but so you will understand what's going on... then fix it.

    It is sometimes easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem by simply deleting the startup message.
    I would also not recommend you start digging in the registry to try to find the startup item and remove it unless you have a backup of your system or at least a backup of your registry, because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.
    These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom if they not even work at all, but they can't actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.  You don't need to try ideas that might work, you must do something that will always work all the time.
    Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.
    There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.  If you can't find a good explanation for the name of the file in a Google search, re chances while your system is currently or has been infected with malicious software.
    A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
    It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
    Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
    So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.

    You must be sure to solve the problem and not just fix the symptom of the problem by simply relieving your message - system is not a fix (there is a difference).

    If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
    If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
    Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry
    . There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
    Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
    You can also use the Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
    Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
    When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information.  You are really interested only a few sections.
    The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
    Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
    If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
    You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
    Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove.  If you are not sure what it is, you can simply disable, restart and if the problem is resolved and then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
    Given that you had or have an infection, followed with this:
    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  • 'open a new tab' button on the toolbar will not insert a new tab after current

    I want to open a new tab button at the right end of the tab bar to open a new tab, after the currently open tab Similarly the browser does when the browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent profile option is set to true.

    The current behavior is VERY annoying that I still have many tabs open and then scroll all the way to the right of the tab bar and drag the new tab to where I want, which is always on the active tab.

    Not sure if this has been already supported but if not, I used to run Tabberwoky which is no longer works and I became very fond of the function and I do 8 Firefox to do this.

    Please tell me how, that I cannot or should do otherwise.

    II havwe a Sony's Bravia TV that is about 5 years old.  I am trying to play a video through my VCR and it won't play.  I put the setting on 3 HDMI and it won't work.  I'm trying to find a setting on my TV that can activate the video to play.  Remote control functions do not change the settings.  I can turn on and off the TV with the remote control, but that's all I can do. I changed the batteries...  I was able to get the TV went from 1 HDMI to HDMI3 using the button on the side of the TV and the family but cannot change other settings.

    I recently spent the cable to direct tv and was told by direct tv that wouldl does not affect tv.  The VCR is connected even as always.

    You can check if certain keys on your remote to work or not using a phone camera smart (have not tried with iPhone yet)... All you have to do, is open the camera on your smart phone, place the top of the remote control (where infrared is located) in front of the camera... Press the power button / stop (since u said that it is the only button that works)... you should be able to see a light on your phone screen when you press the power button... (which means that the button works... Then try it with any another button on your remote...

    If the other keys do not work, I think the best thing to do is to get a new one or it exchanged... I don't think that they service for remote controls...

  • button inside the movie will not react to the reversal

    Hello
    I'm developing some kind of film where the image scrolls around. That works, but when I try to define some hotspots on this by adding buttons to the movieClip that I can't respond to the action of reversal (onRelease and delivery) it is already used by the main movieClip.
    Any ideas on a work around?
    I read 4 hours and can not find a good solution.

    You must remove all mouse managers assigned to all clips of ancestor. Use a loop and hittests to replace all these managers of mouse you have deleted.

    for example:

  • inDesign update and now the mouse will not drag/repositioning objects

    Just open inDesign for the first time after the most recent update (which I think that I've updated yesterday). Have found that I can not drag/reposition the objects with the MOUSE - Although everything can be moved with the arrow keys or by entering the values digital location. The key to the question here is 'move' (or 'slide', if you prefer). I can RESIZE with the mouse... but no repositioning bounding boxes. In fact, the functions normally accessible by or otherwise used by a mouse work - with the exception of drag.

    Hi rcminc,

    Please, try to restart the Mac in safe mode and check the performance of the application.

    Try safe mode if your Mac does not end commissioning - Apple Support

    If the application works in safe mode. Try to restart and check if it works in normal mode.

  • I installed Firefox today but it does not open and the icon in the taskbar will not close and I can't uninstall it and the helper does not work either?

    I tried everything I know to uninstall the new version of Firefox. I also installed Aurora beta and it had the same behavior, and I managed to uninstall that. I can't open a browser ff to work on it with the help of a large part of your support information. I click the icon, but it does not start on the desktop but the clock running as Task Manager. I have to end task in Task Manager to close it. I can not uninstall and tried the system restore, but this also does not work due to another problem with my antivirus program.
