• Touchpad does not scroll and the lower bar disappears on Satellite Pro L

  Hi, as I said just on the laptop as usual, but for some reason now the Touchpad will not Parade (but work the touch to click). And the lower bar disappears only when I'm on the internet chrome (chrome on his party, but still there on internet explore, but who wants to use the Explorer! lol).

  It makes it so difficult to click between the research and writing! It is still there as it should be on doc word, excel etc.

  Little things, but super boring and I don't understand why change, or how they're connected. Hold fixed, its so stupid he would change just on me.

  Any help is very appreciated!
  Thank you, Jenna

  Hello

  The touchpad settings can be changed in Control Panel-> mouse
  Here, you will have to go to the last tab advanced and click on the Advanced button.

  You should now get a menu with all the options available for touchpad.
  It should be an option called use scroll function. This should be checked/enabled.

  Check it!

• How can I restore my desktop icons and the taskbar icons

  I tried to open a file with a program's .lnk and her was not recognized in the program, and now my desktop icons and my icons to the taskbar was converted into icons for the program. How to get this back? I need to know how to do this in Windows 7.

  [Moved from comments]

  There are some patches for the issue that you siding, but most of them requires registry changes that I do not say that they can cause several other problems. I recommend that you perform a system restore.

  There are two ways to perform the system restore:

  Menu start open, click Run and type cmd to open the command prompt.

  Type CD... to book only c:\.

  Type windows CD then CD System32, and then restore.

  After once, you'll find yourself in c:\ windows\system32\restore >

  Type restrui.exe press ENTER.

  Once the system restore the open window then click on next to select any available restore point.

  This process takes a few minutes to do the restore and please make sure that once this process has begun there wont be reversible and or you will lose all personal data.

  Another way to perform the system restore is to open the safe mode by clicking on F8 at startup and check the option of safe mode, then still a dialog box opens to ask the system restore and then follow the steps above.

• I lost all my desktop icons and you can't get back them

  I installed Vipre Antivirus and I lost all my desktop icons I removed Vipre still does not

  The desktop icons? You have absolutely nothing on the screen? Or only some icons are missing?

  Perhaps your desktop icons are hidden.

  Right-click on the desktop, and then select view.
  Under view, place a check on "show desktop icons".

  Any change?

  See you soon!

• A toolbar that is added to the start bar disappears on some computers if the language bar is docked.

  I did a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate on one of my PC. All device drivers are working perfectly. I added Turkish to my languages and choose to display the embedded language (that is not detached from the start bar) bar. I added another toolbar (it could be a toolbar, such as the address or the Quick Launch bar, or a custom toolbar) to the start bar. When I restart the computer, it will operate additional disappears and I have to select them again each time. The only solution I've been able to understand in order to prevent the disappearance of these toolbars is to disconnect the language bar or choose to not show it. Download of Windows 7 available updates and update all device drivers did not make a difference. Device Manager displays any hardware not recognized and all that it seems normal. Out of curiosity, I installed the same operating system on another dissimilar PC, but did not have the same behavior. I hope that Microsoft or some other assistant will be able to understand why this happens (in some cases), and then maybe a fix/tweak BONE is located.

  The taskbar settings are saved during the connection process off... I guess something must this interrupts.

  When you manage add toolbar and it will not disappear after the reboot you can understand that the value of TaskbarWinXP located under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Desktop has been changed. He's almost 4 larger than without the extra toolbar.

  Yet once I tried different combination... Add the toolbar > connection off > login on > add the missing toolbar > restart > rest of the toolbar. I also tried disabled Norton Internet Security, and once again, I was able to successfully add the toolbar, but I guess it was rather related to the previous example, because I disconnect while.

• Icons in the task bar disappeared

  Original title: XP Pro not written Lac program memory information

  After reinstallation of programs or using the Task Manager to stop some sandbox process, then from the programs again to return the status bar icons in the status bar, they disappear after a reboot or shut down and restart. I have a Dell Optiplex GX280, 3.4 GHz with 3 GB of RAM. Two of them are new modules of a GB of quality and the other GB is two older modules of 512 MB. It was an intermittent problem and the tray would sometimes load icons of the toolbar State but now only the clock and running network icons are there after the reboot. I changed the bar of tasks and Menu properties back to try to reset the status bar, but nothing seems to help. A new facility is out of the question with all the security and other updates that need to be reinstalled on this old of a BONE, especially with "dial-up". I just restored a full backup of my external hard drive, but it made no difference. I have a laptop Dell XP Home that works very well. I didn't something different with the XP Pro that I did not go to the laptop.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
