Satellite M105-S308: silent acoustic CD/DVD icon appears in the taskbar

I used my Satellite M105-S3084 for quite awhile (year?) when suddenly for the first time a new icon appeared on my taskbar of Windows XP.

This is the icon for the acoustic CD/DVD Toshiba muffler.

Because I've never had this icon appears before (and yes I used my CD player a bit), I became concerned about his sudden appearance.

What is malware? What could arise? Do I need? Can I stop it from running?

Thank you.

> Would be - this malware?
No, it is not malware. This is as designed Toshiba utility. When you listen to music CDs, you can switch to silent mode, and the DVD player runs very quiet.

> What could arise?
It is not easy to explain. This utility usually starts with Windows.

> Do I need?
No. I am sure that you can live without this utility.

> Can stop it from running?
Yes you can. Either remove you it from the startup folder system or check or even entered in the System Configuration utility, under the Startup tab (start run MSCONFIG).

Good bye

  • When I open a program, another icon appears in the taskbar. How can I change to make the correct icon?

    I tried to change the default program that appears when I open the .gif or .jpg files, so I made successfully by using the control panel.

    Then when I opened a PDF file (with Adobe Reader X), the icon that appears in the taskbar is my default program for .gif and .jpg files (in this case, paint).  I checked the options of the program by default under the control panel and it does not say that .pdf files will be opened by Adobe Reader if it is not the problem.

    When I check the properties of Adobe Reader X, the icon used is the appropriate icon.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader software, but it still happens.  I restarted the computer.

    So why Windows 7 displays the icon of the paint when a .pdf file is opened?

    I ask here because the control panel and change the default programs is a Windows 7 problem.

    Thank you

    Oh believe me, it would drive me crazy too.

    It's probably a long shot, because as far as I know, the taskbar should not use the shortcut icon to the start menu to choose which shows... but we will try.  Just kill this reader shortcut in the start menu and make your own (just open Adobe C:\Program 9.0\Reader and do a right click AcroRd32.exe choose "send to: desktop (create shortcut)" and then falling in your Start menu.)  Try it pin to the taskbar too and then open a PDF file maybe.
    I think I know the registry keys control this icon, but I really hesitate to recommend snooping around in it.

    Hello

    Try this:

    Control Panel - device - sounds Manager - note manufacturer device name and info on the graduating model.
    Double click and get the date and version of the driver (if 06 are dates, you use the default windows driver). Now
    Click the DRIVER UPDATE (this can not find anything because MS is far behind the certification of drivers). Now LAW
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Now, go to the manufacturer of the system and recover the last pilot audio/Hi-Fi as a fall.

    Download it - SAVE - go to where you put it - RIGHT CLICK top - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT

    Now do the same for the manufacturer of the device (the one that made the device - if you were using the default windows
    you might need to look in the Device Manager - his new driver).

    Often, you will need to run the sound card drivers several times to get the latest version installed and will appear in
    Manager - Sound. This is because they make back the drivers one at a time and then finally install the
    most recent. Look in the Device Manager to be sure that you have installed the version of the driver is the one showing, if not
    run the driver again (reset each time) until the shows a correct.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • Recent Places icon appearing on the desktop when ever I go to recent locations in the Favorites

    When ever I go to recent locations in the Favorites page to clean my memory this recent locations icon appears on the desktop WITHOUT option to right click and delete OR drag it to the trash

    I found a tutorial on the web that provides a way to remove the icon
    1.right - click recent locations in the field of Favorites tab in Explorer.
    2. click on "send to", and then select Desktop
    This will automatically replace the existing icon and replace it with a DESKTOP SHORTCUT
    3. simply delete the shortcut
     
    But this issue should be fixed in next update, or maybe it is set in point 8.1 of Windows because it's REALLY BORING to this procedure whenever you clear recent locations

    Thank you very much! To solve my problem... As you have said, I hope there will be an update so that we do not have to constantly...

    Much appreciated, Cheers

    I had a power outage and when the power came back, the icon of the voice in the lower right corner (taskbar?) was absent. My computer (Toshiba Satellite P205-S6267) regulator dial is broken, so I can't adjust the volume without the sound icon. I have a sound icon on the left side of the taskbar, but it does not regulate the volume.
