• Missing taskbar, start button

  Yesterday, I pulled my computer and found my taskbar and lack of start button.  All my desktop icons are present and functioning, it is only the taskbar and start missing button.

  I did a CTRL-ALT-DEL and open Manager tasks and typed 'explorer', but this fix has not worked for me.
  I also tried to have vista start since before, but I was told that my drive does not fats, that is not possible.

  HELLLPPPPP!

  The taskbar can be set to auto-hide function.  Press the Windows to make it appear, then right click on the taskbar, click Properties and uncheck Auto-hide the taskbar .

  Or, the taskbar may be too small.  Move the slider to the bottom of the screen, then slowly back up.  If the cursor turns into a two-headed arrow, click and drag it to the taskbar is larger.  If this does not work, try the same thing on the side left, top and right of the screen...

• Wallpaper, icons, taskbar, and start missing the Start button!

  When I connected my computer yesterday, my office was a black screen dark with no background, no icons, no taskbar and no start button.  Curiously, the 'My documents' folder has been opened and the files it contains coulds will open normally.  Using this file open, I was able to navigate to other files and folders through windows Explorer, but was not able to restore the office via the control panel.  Right click on the screen had no effect, and the windows of the keyboard key is also without effect.  I started the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete, click on 'File', then "Start New Task" and "Explorer.exe" has entered into the box.  It restored the office and everything you still, but the problem is repeated every time that I reboot.  I have run many virus scans, eliminate a virus called "y.exy", as well as some adware in the registry, but the removal of the malware has not fixed this problem.  Is this virus problem, or is it a problem with the Explorer?  Why the monkey (my documents) folder would be always available at startup, when I almost never access that folder otherwise?  Any help would be most apreciated - is not only annoying - I am very worried that the malware may have corrupted my computer somehow.

  Hi rcquinn,

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Windows Vista Community.  Start your computer in Safe Mode and if necessary, start explorer.exe task manager.  Then perform a System Restore and let us know if this helps.

• close the option to stop/restart/switch users is missing from the Start button

  For some reason, I have more option to stop/restart/switch user under the Start button. The lock button is there with an arrow, but the only option under this arrow is LOCK. How do I return these options? The only way I have to shut down the computer now is to use the button on the computer itself.

  Simple terms only, please. I am a newbie of Windows. Thank you.

  Restore point:

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  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.

  See you soon.

• Miss me my icons on toolbar (those that are static then the Start button) out of my taskbar.

  I had problems when I watch videos full screen on You Tube, then tried to play with the settings of the task bar and now I have my icons on the left side next to the Start button and can not add more!

  Here's a few shortcuts "pinned" to the taskbar.  Either drag a shortcut to the bar of tasks or right-click on a shortcut and select "Pin to Taskbar."  If you do not have a shortcut on your desktop for a particular program, find the exe file (for example, C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft Office\Office14\Winword.exe) and right click and select "Pin to the taskbar.

• I can't access my account normally in Vista Home Premium: no job, no icons, no start button bar

  This problem started about 2 days ago. I turn on the computer and it starts normally. Then, when I put my password to login my account all I'm getting is the dialog box on a black screen asking if I want to start Vista now or more later. In addition, there are also a message in the corner at the bottom right of the screen saying that it is not a genuine copy of Vista. There is no taskbar, no icons, no start button. So far I tried to start safe mode and it identify you with icons, button bar and try to start but the background is always black without wallpaper. I tried restoring the system and don't have a virus scan with Live One Care, but these did not work.  Sometimes if I leave it alone and come back later the missing items are returned on their own, but the wallpaper is not yet there. In fact, while I was typing this question jumped in the back things. What else can I try?

  Hello

  If Windows has not been activated, the black screen is a normal behavior of Microsoft.  See André solution in this thread for Windows 7.
