• Impossible to disable "Group similar taskbar buttons" in the taskbar

  Original title:

  I use Windows XP Professional and I recently downloaded Internet Explorer 8. After I downloaded it, all my applications are grouped into a single point on the right side of the taskbar without worrying whether or not they were similar (Word, Outlook, etc.). I went into the properties of the taskbar and uncontrolled group similar taskbar items, but it does not solve the problem. I tried to find an answer online, but I haven't found answers for Windows 7 and Windows XP does not have the same elements in properties. Ideas for this problem?

• Tasks grouped to the right of the taskbar?

  Recently, when I turned on my Windows Vista laptop, I noticed that all my tasks have become the itty-bitty icons grouped to the right side of my taskbar, to the left of the notifications bar.  There is plenty of space for them to spread out in the task bar, so I'm puzzled as to why they moved.  I can is no longer simply click on I want to open it.

  My taskbar is at the bottom of my office and I tried to resize.  He made the bar higher, while tasks are always grouped together as tiny thumbnails.  What can I do to solve this problem, so that I can access run programs without closing everything?

  -Right click on your task bar, and then press properties.
  -Uncheck the box where it says "lock taskbar" and click on apply.
  -You should now see the dots.
  -Hold the points to the left of the tabs you want to move, and then drag the em to the left of the task bar.
  -When you've got your tabe where you want, right click on your taskbar, then press proterties.
  -Now check the taskbar "lock" - box and your points should disappear and your tabs should be where you placed.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

  In the right side window, click on the NoAutoTrayNotify value and select Edit. If there is a '1', replace it with "0".

• left-click on the icon of firefox in the taskbar displays a list of all the tabs. How to open just to the last tab?

  I use the tab grouping feature a lot. It means that I have 100s of tabs open at any time.

  The problem: once a switch between tab groups, the Firefox icon in the task bar changes in what looks like multiple echoes of the Firefox icon. I guess this is supposed to represent several groups of tabs.

  Before the 20th of Firefox might click on the Firefox icon in the taskbar, and would come to the top and show the last tab, I worked on Firefox.

  Since Firefox 20 a left click on the Firefox icon in the task bar now displays a list of the 28 tab + seemingly random tabs. Many of them said only: "Mozilla Firefox" instead of the site represented by this tab (because the tab has not been accessed recently).

  To open Firefox to the last tab, that I worked on is now a real chore. I now have to choose one of these tabs 28 + (which is 99% of the time the tab bad), then switch to the Group of the appropriate tab and then find the tab I've worked on. It usually takes 5-10 clicks to get back to where I was before I've minimized Firefox, or before that Firefox has lost focus. (In the past I could simply click on the Firefox in the taskbar, and restored Firefox icon where I left last.)

  How can I disable the list that is displayed when a left click or move the mouse over the Firefox icon in the taskbar? I would like the ability to minimize/restore Firefox by clicking on the Firefox icon in the taskbar, as it was in the past, do not get a choice of random tabs.

  I think that I thought about it. Under OPTIONS > OPTIONS > TAB, uncheck the box for "Show glimpses of tab in the Windows task bar" and then click OK

• Is the monitor of imagery needed on the taskbar if you do not print? How many...

  I have checked old solutions here and do not have quite the same issue, I would like to ask.

  I have the Solution Center on the old pc with XP. Works well, thank you, and several resources always help the XP'. I also have a HP with 8. How many resources it takes and don't forget that it is a netbook pc which tend to be more slow start. All I could eliminate might help.

  My question is on the XP that monitor must be loaded every time if you do not plan to print? Could not be loaded just before the solution center if that was the program that I run?  Thank you very much!

  Hi @jnepoore,

  Now, I'm not 100% certain, but I'm sure that the digital imaging monitor is not necessary. However it helps maintain a constant communication between the printer and the software. Take a look at what I found:

  Posted by rnfolsom

  Picardjc wrote that "Digital imaging monitor is part of the HP software that communicates with your HP printer. This program allows to read the ink levels, get an out of paper message, scan from the device to the computer and so on. Its not necessary, but it will limit the use of printers if you delete. "Understood. But for my printer HP Officejet Pro 8000 A809a, what is the purpose of having the digital imaging monitor icon in the taskbar Windows7 sp1 of the Notification area (aka system tray)? My A809a is NOT an all-in-one that includes a scanner; It is simply a very good printer. When I start to print something, if you need ink or paper, that information is displayed on the screen of my computer. So I ask again: why is the icon of monitor digital imaging on the taskbar? I clicked on at the time of this icon (I not print anything, but as usual, the printer is turned on), and nothing happened. R.N. (Roger) Folsom
  

  P.S., Below I'll post some other discussions (with links to their locations) of the digital imaging monitor, I discovered before finding this site on which I am writing. There are a variety of opinions on what makes the digital imaging monitor. HP Digital Imaging Monitor is for HP director system tray access. This is necessary if you want to use the buttons of all-in-one on a HP printer all in one to scan documents or transfer photos from a camera manually. Closing the icon monitor HP digital imaging in the Windows system tray can cause the HP all-in-one to lose part of its scanning features and not the connection error message. In this case, you can restore all functionality by restarting the computer or by starting the HP digital imaging monitor.

  Re: WITHDRAWAL HP Digital Imaging Monitor Systray? [Edited] 03/08/2011 14:05 - edited? 03/08/2011 14:08 Yes, it is safe to remove. In my view, it is usually in the program group under start / all programs / startup. Simply navigate under the Start button, right-click on it and delete! If it is not there, then remove it from the registry: run regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and delete it from the list in the right pane. If she is not there, then try hkey_current_user\\software\\microsoft\\windows\\currentversion\\run it's better than using msconfig and uncheck it. In my opinion, msconfig must always be set to Normal startup. Your printer will always print without that annoying obstructive utility called Digital Imaging Monitor. Ciao!

  I know that the information is specific to Windows 7, but the bottom line is, no, there is no need to run all the time. Registry keys are significantly different for XP as they are for Windows 7 while blurb does not apply. I just copied the post in its entirety for you to read through.

  Another thing to consider is uninstall the software and then download and install the base driver.

  Please let me know if this is useful, or if you have any other questions. I'm happy to do my best to help.

• remove the taskbar to the desktop so it does not show on login

  I want to be able to have the task bar start bar shows any or even allow him to appear on my XP computer. y at - there a program or something to do. running an application that uses only a mouse and want not employees to something else.

  MS

  There is also a freeware program that can get rid of the taskbar and the Start button: http://www.thewindowsclub.com/how-to-hide-or-remove-windows-7-taskbar

  I have not tested, however.

  Group Policy can become very complicated and it cannot get rid of the task bar itself, but it cannot limit its use and you can lock a bit.  More information: http://www.ehow.com/how_6467382_customize-menu-using-group-policy.html

• iTunes appears in the taskbar for 5 seconds when starting upwards

  Good day to you Jacques, thank you very much for your help.

  I deleted the old account (corrupt) via the new account, control panel > user accounts is the normal way to delete an account, but maybe not with an account that is damaged? This account has not entirely removed, I guess there's about 34 GB hard disk!

  I was then looking for another way to remove the remains via my computer > properties > Advanced tab > user profiles click settings, this also not failed to remove the remaining files.

  I had a look at your mode of deleting an account; In my version of Windows XP after system tools > there is no local users and groups to see what has been so far I could go. What makes an operating system recovery (reinstall the Windows XP operating system) is called for as the only way forward, this issue goes into a new question/answer see http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system/error-signature-bccode-1000008e-bcp-c0000005-bcp2/2ce5c688-927f-4c00-be83-562ad75e6b82

  The answer

  I was slow to identify this problem; the installation was corrupted. The iTunes updated in November and it was when he started and created a big problem. I realize now more important to uninstall iTunes and QuickTime as soon as it is noticed.

  iTunes gives assistance with uninstalling, they fail will add or remove to remove, this is the link of web http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925#1 you will probably need help deleting the non movable files use the following links.

  The first http://www.ehow.com/how_8526319_delete-locked-dll.html site that led you to the second site http://www.gibinsoft.net/gipoutils/fileutil/index.htm that you need to leave this window open until the installation is complete, then it works fine.

  Use GiPo@MoveOnBoot to plan a DLL file for the next time that you start your computer to ensure that the software deletes the file before deleting. The GiPo@MoveOnBoot utility is included in the defined GiPo@FileUtilities that allows you advanced operations of the system, such as installation disc and read the error checking.

  Set a system restore point and use the registry cleaner to remove iTunes and quick time etc. Leverage research as well find and remove these obsolete entries, make sure you delete the entries for other programs and My Documents or Favorites can use the tools new in C Cleaner registry cleaner will allow you to remove the entry from QuickTime remaining via Add / Remove.

  When you are done I suggest run Disk Cleanup, and then Disk Defragmenter open via accessories command prompt and enter sfc /scanonce press the Enter key, it should say that after the next startup it will start checking files.
  It scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with versions appropriate Microsoft see the following link;

  http://www.TomsHardware.co.UK/Forum/59402-35-scannow%20

  You may need to verify these points by searching on the web to confirm these actions. I'm still not aware how know when reinstall iTunes installation is good, so for now I have not reinstalled it.

• Horizontal size of the taskbar button is TOO SMALL! (possibly a programmer for this one)

  This is a revised repost.

  I downloaded a program called Styler which changes the appearance to look like Windows 7 or Royal themes. It worked fine for the first days, until that day when my laptop could not start after hibernation, so I hard-rebooted, and the horizontal size of the taskbar button is too small. I have tried rebooting, changing the appearance back, locking/unlocking/resizing components of taskbar, AND I removed the Styler. I wish I could send a screenshot. Yes, I have these vertical bars displayed and all, and no, they do not change it. I use as a separate program called AlienGUIse Alienware, which has not had a problem in 2 years, I got it, and it didn't fix it either.

  It's as if there are many buttons it congestion because the function "Group similar taskbar buttons" is still active. I posted the picture of the problem in my profile.

  Try a system restore to before installing Styler. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• 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:
