• My office and the taskbar icons keep disappearing.

  Whenever I turn on my computer, my desktop icons and the taskbar disappear when I click on them.

  I want to assure you that I do not understand what you wrote...

  When you start your computer and login to your account, you can see all the icons and the taskbar. Yes?

  But, when "clicked", all the icons and taskbar disappear. Yes?

  If this is your situation, switch Mode without failure.

  Shut down your computer > turn it back on and immediately and repeatedly tab key F8 until you see a black and white screen. The top/down arrow and selectSafe Mode with command prompt.

  The taskbar and icons will stay put in safe mode?
  If so, try the following suggestions: * at the end of each suggestion, check if the problem persists. If so, the following suggestion *.

  To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.

  2. If the above is not enough, do a file system check.

  Start button > Search box type cmd > look up, do a RIGHT click oncmd.exe > click onRun As Administrator > in this window cmd black and white, type at the prompt flashing sfc/scannow > press theENTER key.
  Note: there is a space between 'sfc' and ' / '.
  To sit and wait. It will take time.
  When finished, exit the cmd window.
  Reboot (restart your computer)

  3. create a new user account with the same privileges as your current.
  Logon to this new account. The same problem persists?

• Current Volume icons, network, disappear from the notification area.

  I know that microsoft has heard this problem many times that I read many forums to ask this question.
  I went to this link
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/945011
  and used the microsoft fix and it worked for a few weeks, but then the icons disappeared again.
  I tried the Microsoft fix it once more and restarted my computer, but it did not work.
  so I tried to fix it manually by removing the two registry subkeys, restart explorer.exe, and then I restarted my computer.
  still no effect. I also understand that the icons disappear only on this computer user, the user can see the icons in the notification area.

  If this happens only to a single user...
  You might want to try to create a new profile for this particular user. The profile may be damaged.

  You can take a look at this tutorial:

  1. what version of IE are you using?

  3. do you have an antivirus installed on the computer?

  4. do you also deal with any show related to problems with the computer?

  5. are you aware of any changes made to the computer before the show?

  First of all, you can run a full scan using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.

  Note: there is a risk of data loss if all the files are infected and which can be removed in the cleaning process.

  Hi ad391970,

   

  The reason for updates make changes on the computer would be some conflicting third-party programs or there might be a corruption in the Windows Update components.

  I suggest that you try to install updates by disabling the third-party program conflict and check if it works.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Perform the check and the clean boot if you have the problem.

  1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  User account control permission

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

  2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

  3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

  4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

  5. click on OK.

  6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

  7. after the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

  If the problem is resolved to check what is the cause of the problem, referring to the link given below:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  On the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  When you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

  If the step above does not resolve the issue updates suggest that you try to reset the component of windows update and check if it works.

  Check out the link below to find out how to reset the windows component update

  How to reset the Windows Update components?

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/971058

  If the step above does not resolve the question suggests that you check in a new user account if you are faced with a similar question. If a face similar to a new user account which means your other user account has been corrupted.

  I have WINXP Pro s ver.2002 / SP3.  The power icon keep disappearing several times from the system tray?  I have restore but when I restart the laptop, they're gone. This also occurs in the Volume icon at the same time. Do not remember what has been loaded or were able to do.  This fine all worked until the day. Now I have to live with almost a one-time problem by sinister using the sound properties and uncheck, Power Options apply and then check, apply the box "Show icon in the taskbar".  I tried some fixes automatic Microsoft (I think) Web site but no real chance in the long term.

• Volume shortcut icon has disappeared from the Vista tray

  Volume shortcut icon has disappeared from my status bar at the bottom of the screen... How do I get it back?
  Seems silly, but I can't find it!

  Hello

  Have you checked the settings in the taskbar and Start Menu Properties?
  There should be a tab named Notification area.

  In this tab, you find an option; Hide inactive icons.
  You can turn off (disable) this device or you can customize it.
  In addition, you can choose which icons should be available and shows even the Hide inactive icons option would be activated.

  In some cases, these options may be grayed out
  In this case, you will need to find a registry key:
  HKEY_CURRENT_USER Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \TrayNotify

  and here you have to delete the keys: + IconStreams + and + PastIconStream +.

  Try these steps and check if that helps:

  ** Turn it back on. Sometimes a reboot will solve this problem.* *.

  1. close all programs and stop the laptop.

  2. remove all power supplies (battery and power cord)

  3. empty the remaining power by pressing the power on button for 30 seconds (even if you have no power).

  4. put the battery back and start the computer

  5. once fully loaded, right-click on the system tray and select Properties.

  6. This will bring to the top of the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties" dialog box. The "Notification area" tab.

  7. at the bottom of the tab, is the area 'icons systems. " There is a checkbox for "Power". "check" the box and click on apply or OK.

  Also update your graphics card drivers.

  It works! Tanks a lot Johnny D.81!
