Network icon is missing from the notification area after the window updated

I have some problems about the notification for the network and the volume icon!
They are missing after the window updates!
I tried to check the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties' > 'Notification area', Volume and network are grey which I cannot check these boxes. Grateful if you could help me solve this problem!
Thank you very much!

Hi VisBo,

Welcome to the windows vista forums.

Please follow the steps below to resolve this issue:

1. right click on the taskbar and click Properties.

2 tab Area of Notification .

3 check (on) or disable (off) the options you want or do not want to display on the Taskbar Notification area.

For the network icon, you can also do with the registry.

NOTE:

Please be careful while making changes to the registry, any undesirable changes can affect your operating system.

1. click on start.

2. in the start menu search bar type regedit, and then on enter.

3 Please go to this location in the registry by expanding each location by clicking on the brand more on the left side.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\LocalSettings\Software\
Microsoft\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify

4. remove the keys 'IconStreams' & 'PastIconsStream '.

5. start the Task Manager by pressing ctrl + alt + delete at the same time.

6. in the Task Manager right click on explorer.exe and kill the process.

7. click on applications in the task manage, press new task and type explorer.exe, and then press ENTER.

Explorer will now reboot and your icons should return.

Alternatively, you can try to uninstall the most recent update that has caused the problem. You can uninstall an update by clicking on the icon of the program features in Control Panel. Select the update that caused the problem, and then uninstall it.

You can also make a selection of updates to install by setting the windows updates to notify you before installing an update. To open this Panel, and then click windows updates, click settings.

I hope this information is useful.

Please let us know if you need assistance.

  • Update problems, I just reinstalled XP pro and I can't get the updates from the windows update web site

    I just reinstalled XP pro and I can't get the updates from the windows update web site. Whats up with this please help

    There is no way that anyone might be able to help without more. My initial guess and it is just a guess, is that you have to update Internet Explorer .v8. Click HERE and download IE8 and install it. Try again updates once the installation is complete.

  • My 'home' icon is missing from the toolbar. How can I get that back?

    The little black House (the House icon) is missing from my toolbar. I always used to use to quickly go back
    to start a new search. Why he disappeared, and how do I get it back? Thanks for your help.

    You can open the Customize and set the toolbar to display items.

    • Firefox '3-bar' menu button > customize
    • If the missing elements are in the palette to customize then drag them back into the window to customize the toolbar
    • If you don't see an article on a toolbar and in the palette to customize, then click on the reset default button to restore the default toolbar configuration

    If you right click on an item to toolbar in normal mode (non-personnaliser) mode, then you can remove this item from the toolbar.

    • "Remove from toolbar" will remove this element of the Navigation toolbar and moves it to the palette to customize (Firefox '3-bar' menu button > customize)
    • "Go to the Menu" will move this point '3' dropdown menu Firefox button bar
    • "Move to the toolbar" in the "3-bar" Firefox dropdown menu button will move that point to the toolbar

    Salvation Windows XP experts,

    My "Automatic Updates" is set on "download updates for me, but let me choose when to install them", but several times I don't get the icon in the system tray, and it is until I want to shud down my laptop when I get the message "click on disable to install important updates and turn off your computer. , and if I work on the batteries, I don't even get this message. Sometimes I change my setting "Notify Me but don't automatically download or install" hoping that icon will appear, but it's not.

    Recently, I have been informed of the 2 updates to download and agreed, but they got downloaded the icon has disappeared... and when I lock my PC, I got this message because I have new updates have been installed, I clicked on the button "turn off". I was surprised when I saw him on the screen saying 1 of 1 updates is being intalled! I pressed the power button until it exploded and then restarted, it, went into the folder Windows to know he was installing the single update, is not one of the 2 updates that I accepted on! What a f * ing system?

    What can I do to see what updates will be installed on my PC?

    Thank you

    Hello

    If I understand well, you have a little problem with the 'automatic update' - in particular with the notification in the system tray icon. The icon does not appear in the system status bar when updates are ready for instalation - does?

    There is a similar but opposite problem - system "Auto update" displays the icon in the system tray – as they may be new updates installed, but the updated window does not update after clicking on the icon in the system tray:

    http://www.eggheadcafe.com/Microsoft/Windows-Update/29682120/Automatic-Update-icon-stay-on-system-tray.aspx

    So, this has been resolved by removing the "C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" directory "C:\WINDOWS" folder

    (before deletion was stopped the service "Windows update").

    What you can try:

    (1) this Fix IT (full reset Windows Update components - including registration of libraries, to rename files ...)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058/en

    2) install the latest version of the Windows Update Agent (for good communication with the WWW of Windows update server)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/949104/en

    3) only recommend - install the latest IE (IE8) (Select language)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=43

    (4) this Microsoft Genuine Advantage diagnostic (I hope that will be the pages of the SITE in English)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/genuine/diag/

    enable to download ActiveX and validate windows

    I confess that I have not read previous answers (PA bear MS MVP) in detail, it is possible that you've already tried this. However, I tried this, if I had similar problems.

    Error number: 8DDD0020 the Windows Update Catalog WEB site.

    This clean install Windows 7 Ultimate SP1.

    I would like to stress that this is not a malfunction of Windows Update. This works well for me.

    I tried various fixes but again, they were for Windows Update, which continues to work well and is not the problem.
