  Hi janavasiljev,
   
  This problem can occur for the following reasons:
  • Auto-hide the taskbar has been selected for the taskbar and Start Menu Properties.
  • Your user account settings are corrupt.
  • The core files are damaged.
  • The Explorer.exe file does not load at startup.

  Make sure that the hide option automatically is not selected for the taskbar and Start Menu Properties.

  To determine if the hide option automatically is not enabled for the taskbar and Start Menu properties, follow these steps:

  a. press CTRL + ESC.

  b. If the Start menu is displayed, click on the Start menu and then click Properties.

  c. click on the task bar , clear the Auto-hide the taskbar option and then click OK.

• The start menu and taskbar does not appear.

  original title: the start menu and taskbar does not appear.  IM on windows 7.  Any help please?

  The start menu and taskbar does not appear.  IM on windows 7.  Any help please?

  You can try to leave Explorer yourself.  Here's how:

  1. Press Ctrl-Shift-escape, which should open the Task Manager.
  2. On the file menu, choose new task.  Type explorer.exe and press ENTER.  The taskbar and the desktop should appear.

  However, this is not a permanent solution.  My best advice to you would be to use the system restore to go back to one hour before the beginning of the question.  This restoration process takes about 2 minutes and will not lose one of your folders: it restores only the settings from the system to a point in time that you choose (you can 'come back' as little as a few hours or several weeks).

  To do a test, follow the steps below.  I guess that you are unable to reach the taskbar for the following steps:

  1. Press Ctrl-Shift-escape, which should open the Task Manager.
  2. On the file menu, choose new task.  Type rstrui.exe (this name is for 'restore user interface').  When you click OK, the system restore should start.
  3. Through the system restore program, you will choose a time to come back. When you have completed the program, your computer will restart with the settings at this time.

  Please let me know if it helps.

• JumpLists disabled; 'store and display of recently opened items in the Start Menu and the taskbar' is greyed out

  My option 'store and display of recently opened items in the Start Menu and the taskbar' is grayed out. Are also grayed out any mention of "jumplists" system (i.e. the number of items to display in the jumplists). Have I inadvertently disabled this feature? If so, how can I return it?

  Hi, landonblaine:

  When the option store and display recently opened items in the start menu and the taskbar is disabled and grayed out, it is a symptom that two Windows fonts are applied to your system.

  Open the Publisher of the registry (Regedit.exe) and navigate to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer. If there is a registry that NoRecentDocsMenu value set to 1, delete it. If there is a registry that NoRecentDocsHistory value set to 1, remove it as well.

  Repeat the same steps in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer registry key (it cannot exist).

  Restart your computer and see if the problem is resolved. Microsoft MVP Windows Desktop Experience
