Taskbar, menu icon and start start will not appear

I apologize if I chose the wrong forum for this.    HP Pavilion P6610f Windows 7 family Ed Office.  Internet Wi - Fi of 64-bit (Qwest DSL) middle of experience in technical (I think).  Windows Defender No Windows Live Security Essentials yet, (oops!)  When I signed out of AOL and returned to my desktop, the taskbar, start icon and menu start would not appear.  I tried CTRL + ALT DELETE, to try to find out if a program is interfering, (nothing was running) could not arrested except to do it manually, so I did and pressed conitnually f8 when starting upwards.  I tried 'last best configuration' (did not help) went to HP Support Assistant, ((Heureusement, la barre de HP advisor était en haut de mon écran de bureau) I tried all diagnostic & troubleshooting steps HP Support Assistant.) When I tried to go to Windows Explorer from there, or attempted to open the configuration of my system, he kept saying that the (HAPSLC) (or something close) leave work and he wanted to know why, but never did. I tried it 4 times.  I was hoping to reset back a few days but could not find a way to access this page. Scared to try something else. I did a factory reset on September 1, 2012. Have a record of system repair that was made in may 2012. I think that Windows was the installation of the updates at the time wherever I discovered that these things were not working.  You have any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.

Hello TY965,

Even after a restart, the start menu and task bar not come back?

Try these steps and let me know the results

1. launch the Ctrl + Shift + ESC Task Manager

2. under find explorer.exe processes

3 Select this option and complete the process

4. then go to file, and select new task

5. type Explorer.exe and press OK

Observe the behavior and see if the task bar and menu start back

  • Have 2 printers on the computer and the PC will not print one when you switch to the other?

    Have 2 printers on the computer and the PC will not print one when you switch to the other?

    Having a printer at the office and one at home, but use the same PC for both? Unable to print at home after bring you it to the office (and vice versa)?

    If you USB, most of the time, the PC will recognize what printer is which. Sometimes PORTS does not commute. You can manually change the correct ports if necessary.

    CLICK ON THE MENU START

    1 devices and printers

    2 right CLICK on the printer

    3. choose the PRINTER PROPERTIES

    4. click on PORTS

    5. There will be a list of ports with one (checked marked). If it's on the wrong port, change to the right pair and choose APPLY.

    (NOTE: it must ALWAYS be on a USB port or a wireless connection.) Some ports wireless start with a #(adresse IP) or a SERIAL number)

    I hope this helps. Sometimes, you can create your own port if you have more questions.

Lightroom will attempt to fix the next time it starts. I closed my system and Lightroom will not always start. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    You bet and Yes:

    * do not delete entire .lrdata folder

    * don't delete anything else

    Best?

    If so, you can rebuild strength previews (e.g. standard previews of entire catalog) using library-> menu previews.
