Turn off show desktop icon next to time in Windows 7

Bottom right of my screen, next to the date and time, is a Show Desktop box. Very annoying when the cursor moves on its own and my web page is constantly reduced. How can I disable this function please someone?

1. right click on the button start (in the lower left), and then select Properties.

2. click on the tab bar .

3 uncheck the box to Use Aero Peek to preview the desktop.

4. click on OK.

  • How can I turn off the tiny icons next to the URL in my bookmarks menu?

    My question says it all.

    Thank you.

    Firefox is not integrated to show/hide icons (also known under the name of favicons) site in the bookmarks menu or Bookmarks toolbar, but you may be able to find an extension to take care of this. You can search here: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/

    Alternatively, you can change many of the Firefox user interface using custom style rules. There are a few differences between Windows and Mac when it comes to the menu bar, so I hope that someone more familiar with the Mac can sound all of the bookmarks menu.

    If a right click the office click on view, then uncheck show desktop icons and restart or turn off and turn on my computer can I repeat these steps, and then show the desktop icons check will be the same icons that I had before reappearing!

    Yes. This control simply allows you to show or hide. It does not change the contents of the desktop (C:\Users\\Desktop) user-defined folder. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

  • Turn off the light icons in the display

    Here's the quick stupid n of the day question: how the hell can I turn off the light icons in the display?

    You can go to display Options (View > View Options) to control the projectors wired part. If you want light icons completely off (with a bunch of other things), you can deselect the option Show layer controls (view > show layer controls).

  • BlackBerry Smartphones turning off phone - Message says "next time: August 8, 2009 10:00 ' why?

    Hello

    When I use the red button to turn off the phone, it displays a message that says "next time: August 8, 2009 10:00.

    My phone is not set to automatic start/stop, and even if he was, he has no date option in this environment.  So why is this message, and why he chose this particular date?  I have a reocurring (per year), appointments in the calendar that day and at that time, the birthday of my girlfriend, but I have other appointments before this date, the days also.

    Urgh... hate replying to my own messages...

    Only, I went to the calendar, selected alarm application 'new' and added an alarm for tomorrow at 0600 h.  I keep the phone, and it displays a message saying "next to the time: 26 May 2009 06:00", so it is the function of alarm in the calendar application.

    Thanks for your help.

  • I have a NVidia GTS450 with HDMI output. When I connected it I had sound & vision. After the first time that I turned off the desktop computer sound options just told me THAT HDMI is not connected?

    I am running Vista Home Premium 32 bit. It does not seem to recognize the connection although it is really connected and one / v amp is running. I get the desktop on the HD TV but no sound.

    Hello

    By default the Vista transmits no sound on HDMI output.  To change this to change the settings in the control panel.

    Note: This will turn off sound from speakers or normal audio output on the laptop.  To get that back, you will need to reverse this process.

    a. click on the button 'start '.

    b. click on 'control panel '.
    c. with the control to the "Control Panel Home" Panel, click on 'hardware and sound '.
    d. where it says 'Sound' in green letters, there are three options below that are in blue, click on "manage Audio devices.
    e. This will bring up a window titled "Sound".
    f. on the tab 'Read', he has listed the sound options at your disposal. It should read "peripheral digital output (HDMI)" click on it.
    g. There should now be a checkmark on this option.
    h. the sound should play through your HDMI connections to the TV.

    Do not have access to Safe Mode if you ignore the system restore and click on the button on the Start Menu?  Your initial problems are repeated in this case?

    If you can access Safe Mode things, see if it will help you create another user, and it will allow to test this new user in Normal Mode of loading.

    Also, if you can in Mode safe, download and run this program in mode safe mode and let it scan your computer for malware.

    Try this mode safe too.  Try running ChkDsk to check your drive for errors. Right click on your drive icon / properties / tools / error checking.  Try first by checking do not each box (that it will run in read-only mode) to see if it reports any problems file or hard drive.  If so, restart it by checking both boxes and restart to allow him to attempt to fix any problems found.

    If Safe Mode is not an option for you, see if you can access options of startup repair (be it to start any Windows Vista DVD or the Safe Mode screen options).

  • What happened to my show desktop icon in the Quick Start menu when I upgraded to Firefox 4?

    I value and often use the button SHOW DESKTOP which has always been in my QUICK START MENU... until I recently upgraded to the latest version of Firefox because he promised to be faster (and my experience online in spite of paying for "high speed" is anything but fast!). I see that the icon was not just moved but DELETED and I'm not at all happy about it. What happened and how I get it back? Thank you. (By the way, I don't want a fancy with a bunch of words irritable instructions. I need the answer in a format that can follow a student of 1st year. (Thank you.)

    You can create a new shortcut easily enough. Just drag it into the Quick Launch bar on with the right mouse button and then choose "Create shortcut here" from the menu you get.

  • Show Desktop icon is missing from the Quick Launch bar

    Original title: Windows Search

    I have Windows XP, home edition, SP3, IE8, and I lost one of my desktop icons that I use frequently. This is the icon that is always in the taskbar, as well as a few others. The icon is what opens on the desktop whenever you click on it. It is a white square that looks like a block of office paper, with a figure of what looks like a pencil or pen appearing thereon.  Somehow, somehow, it was deleted, and I can't find where to get it back. I have been in the control panel on 'VIEW' and no luck, only we in the menu of the taskbar and start and he can find, checked a large number of menus that contain the word "Desktop" in it and I clicked on a large number of them also without a bit of luck too. Once more, he is a white icon and is still in the taskbar at the bottom of the screen of the monitor. Someone knows must return this icon... any help would be appreciated.
