  Thanks for the suggestions... I used method 1 and 2. Method 1 does not work and the method 2 worked until it got to the point when it asked me to insert my installation CD... I don't not. This computer did not come with a CD. Installation info are on a D drive. How do you it?

  Hello EJHX,

  You can do this by changing the special folder of the Source registry path. You can use the Update to do, or you can do it manually.

  [1] method: The use of tune-up to set up special folders
  
  
  • Open the integrator of the tune-up or the State Bar Directory
  • Select the Customize Windows from Start Tune-Up Center
  • Click options preferences and behaviors
  • In the left pane, select system under Administration
  • In the right pane, select special folders tab controller
  • Select "Windows configuration files" in the "Special feature" column in the list, then click on 'change '.
  • Find the folder and click OK when finished
  • Click OK again to save the settings

  [2] method: Using Windows Registry Editor to configure the SourcePath value
  
  
  • On the start menu, select "Run."... »
  • Insert: regedit.exe
  • In the left pane, navigate to the following key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft Computer\ My
    \Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup
  • In the right pane, double-click the value SourcePath "' which is a string value
  • Insert the desired location, and then click OK to save the settings

• Volume icon disappeared from my system tray, and the option is grayed out (don't let me check it out) in the taskbar and start menu properties screen /Notification

  I don't know how to recover my volume icon - can anyone help?  Thank you!

  Hello

  If one of the system icons is out, you can reactivate the as follows:

  Right-click on the taskbar and select Properties. This will bring up the tab "properties of menu taskbar and start. It's where you mentioned, it is gray. It is very well...  From there, you can click on Customize button in the icon section. Look for the icon that you are missing, and check the status. The type of report should read "Hide icon and notifications", change that to "Show icon and notifications".

  If this does not resolve the issue most likely you have a problem with group policy on your machine. This can be corrected by following the instructions on the following link:

• Windows 7 taskbar and start menu large icons are either missing (empty by default) or do not show the right program.

  I use Windows 7 Home Premium on an AMD Athlon (TM) II X 4 630 2.80 GHz with 6.0 GB of RAM (64 bit OS). PC is up-to-date with the latest updates and use Norton Anti Virus.

  I used this PC for several months with no problems. After doing some research in my menu of the taskbar Windows Explorer and start icons have become corrupted. The links always work but do not show the right program.

  I tried several things to fix this. I removed everything in the start menu and taskbar, rebooted, added a few back but the problem still exists. I deleted the icon cache file (renamed to db.old), restarted, problem still exist. I made a recovery of a checkpoint system before the problem was still not fixed. When I go to small icons, the problem disappears. The problem only seems to appear when you use large icons in the bar of tasks and the start menu.

  Based on what I've tried so far is there any other suggestions on how to fix this?

  This tutorial is to rebuild the icon cache when the cache is corrupt.

  Option One is easier.

• I use Pale Moon x 64. The icon in the task bar and start menu looks like a 'computer' and not on the icon Moon pale-why is this?

  My computer is Windows 7-64 bit.
  I recently installed the Moon pale x 64 on the right site.
  Everything works fine, except that the "icon" of the particles in the taskbar and start menu is not the blue moon. I wonder why this is and how I can change it.
  This occurred during the installation of the particles.

  Best is to ask PaleMoon support about it.

  PaleMoon is not an official project of Mozilla, is a 3rd generation of part 'Community' that is "powered by Mozilla".
