Toolbar On Taskbar Should Only Be Showing An Arrow But Is Showing Icon?
May 18, 2012
I have a toolbar on my taskbar titled "Programs". It has about eight folders in it. I made another toolbar, and placed it directly adjacent to the Programs toolbar, to obscure the eight folders and force it to be a dropdown menu.Trouble is, as soon as I lock my taskbar, right next to the arrow that displays the eight items of my Programs toolbar in menu-form, one of the eight items is showing up as an icon, as if the other toolbar isn't close enough to the Programs toolbar in order to completely obscure the eight items.
i have problems with this happining with other programs as you can see in the picture
p.s. these programs are saved on external hard drive which i removed while working on the inside of the computer. i put it back in to but it still does this.[url]....
I have just installed windows 7 home on my core i5 2500k machine and everything was working fine, but the windows network icon on the task bar shows I have no connection even though I am connected to the internet and everything works fine.
where is the General Tab In this Network adapter? Also, I couldn't find that check box for Display Network Icon on the Taskbar? Where can I find it? Is something wrong with my new installation of windows 7?
I downloaded 2 videos from a camcorder and the appear on my desktop as a folder. When I try to open them I get a message that tells me the drive or network connection that the shortcut'New folder.lnk refers to is unavailable. My life depends on this as they were important to my son
On the bottom right of the desktop on Windows 76, the notification icon for internet usually shows the disconnected icon or the no access icon. I'm still connected to the internet though and when I click on the icon, it opens up to show my connection (that is working). Why is it doing this? I've tried googling it, no use. It's not really a big deal, but knowing if I'm connected without having to click on the icon is nice.
On my desktop and quick start bar the icon for MS Word is only showing a generic picture. The shortcut is working. All the rest of the MS Office shortcuts have the right icon pictures.I'm running Win 7 Home edition and MS office 2010.
I've just bought a new PC which has Windows 7 installed so just finding my way about! My old PC was running XP and all my program shortcuts in the Quick Launch Toolbar had relevant icons on them. However, although some shortcuts I've put on my 7 QLT have appeared with the relevant icons, for instance FF and TB, 3 other programmes have just come up as blank cream coloured folders. So is there a way to get the proper icons instead of the blanks?
for some unclear reason my windows 7 which i like very much stopped showing my task bar history preview. all my recent data which were all the shortcuts to recently used apps are gone, and the taskbar stopped saving new ones. I can pin new applications but when I press right click they wont show their documnets history or pinned document as they did.
recently any programs I minimize won't show up on the taskbar, but if I alt-tab it'll show back up. I tried google for answers but I could not find anything.
i left my computer on at night and i let the screensaver go on, as i move the mouse to go to my desktop this morning. the task bar was half gone. all that was on the bottom was the start windows logo. Im wondering if my computer is set to turn off the hd or something when the computer isn't touched for 30 min.
I have a client who had a problem on his Windows Explorer in windows 7 64 bit. When he opens the windows explorer, it will show on the taskbar but it will not show on the screen. When he click on it, it will also open. Right click on it but no option to maximize or restore. The same problem with the task manager. But there's no problem opening other applications.
In my taskbar earlier by pointing mouse i was able to see pic of running (opened) programs. now only the names of opoened programes appears. how to get previous settings...
accidentally deleted a file even,an important one.this is what it looks like on this drive and this drive only:but it should look like this instead..this drive and others are ok:
If I update the BIOS on my Intel motherboard to any one of the three most recent BIOS's, my add-in Intel network card (located in one of the pci slots) shows up as a removable device in the taskbar (Much like a USB device; for example a passport removable hard drive or flash drive). However, the motherboard's network controller does not exhibit this behavior.
Intel support is telling me that it can vary as to how the devices are detected by Windows and that this is normal. I have never ever seen a pci slot card being detected as a removable device in the 20 years that I have been using Windows, so I was wondering if what they are telling me is a valid statement? It seems kind of scary that this is happening.
So I have a Atheros 9285 wireless card in my laptop, but now for like 3 months it keeps saying that I'm not connected to a network while in fact I am connected to my wifi network.I can browse the internet and all that but I can't use my homegroup.. was wondering if you guy's had a solution for me...Things that i've tried already:1. Updating/renewing my drivers.. Removing vwififlt.sys.3. Replacing vwififlt.sys4. ebooting my computer.5. Connect to a different network.
my wireless net is not working even though the icon and the properties say "connected" when i disable the net and restart, it starts working for 1 few mins, and works without interruption in safe mode with networking, i have windows 7 professional on my laptop.
I wanted to preserve all the features of my taskbar and just stop it from showing up when I hover the bottom of the screen with the mouse (activating it with the windows key instead)
On one of my Win7 machines I have a arrow icon shortcut close to the system which (when clicked) opens the "Notification Area Icons" setup dialog (= the window which opens when I go to
Control PanelAll Control Panel ItemsNotification Area Icons) On another Win7 machine this arrow icon shortcut is not visible. How can I tell Win7 to embed this arrow icon onto TaskBar?
I have been getting this error, sometimes a few times a day or then sometimes a week.. But still it has the same effect as being on Facebook. The thing that happens is that I get a little yellow triangle with the exclamation mark on it and I cant get online and the only solution so far is that I have to troubleshoot my internet and then I am online again! But I need a better solution because yes no one wants every time to right click the network icon in the right corner and press Troubleshoot Problems.
I have a network storage drive that has seen its last day but I still have the icon under my computer when I try to disconnect from it it tells me the drive does not exist.
I enabled PC Tablet Support in the windows features section of windows 7, but i still can't get windows to pop up that on screen keyboard icon that usually displays next to any type of data input fields.My windows is NOT installed on a tablet pc, but i recently connected a touch screen to my desktop and am hoping to get the same sort of functionality like my tablet edition of xp had.
