• 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.

  If that doesn't do anything for you, please repost to Windows 7 forum, section office and customization:

  Right-click on the taskbar and make sure that it is no longer blocked. Take an empty place and slide it downwards. Lock the taskbar. Bruce Hagen

• Windows 8 programs and start menu keep popping up randomly help!

  OK so I started a program of windows 8, I hide and go to my desktop and use chrome etc. programs all minutes from this program, I hid continues to appear, I close it and it keeps popping up for 3 - 5 times and then it disappears. Anyone know what causes this?

  PROBLEM SOLVED (for me)!  I had this problem for a week on my new computer.  Seemed that the 'Start' button has been continually pressed.  Do you happen to have a wireless keyboard that you have changed out for another which is always close to your computer... like I did.  Turns out I forgot to pull the battery in my wireless keyboard and also has not entered the USB for remote transmitter/receiver.  I got the keyboard on a shelf above the computer.  The button 'Start' was pressed against a book so it was always "pressed" and always communicate with the computer.  Just happened to do that, when I thought if something goes wrong with my original keyboard.  When I out took it of the shelf, the problem stopped.  I hope this helps!

• Taskbar and Start Menu customization errors

  I turned on my computer today, and my taskbar has been replaced with the classic windows style.  I tried to go back to windows vista style and I received this error message.  "The Visual styles could not be applied."  When I chose the option of windows vista Basic, the preview screen was black and it displays this message when I tried to apply and change.  He also did the same for the option of windows aero.

  I tried to get into the command prompt and running a scan (sfc/scannow).  I restarted my computer 3 or 4 times, including after completing the scan.  How can I fix this so that I can choose the option of windows vista basic?

  Hello

  Try to manually start the service responsible for the aero feature.

  Follow these steps:
  a. Click Start and type cmd in the start search box.
  b. right-click on command prompt and select "Run as Administrator".
  Type the following command and press ENTER:
  net start uxsms

  More information about how to troubleshoot issues with Windows Aero, see this link.

• 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".

  Taskkill /f /im explorer.exe
  attrib-h "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\IconCache.db.
  del "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\IconCache.db.

  d. this restart Windows Explorer and rebuild the cache icons as needed.

  Step 2:

  Test the issue in a new user account.
