Remove Callwave Ballon When Minimized
Apr 27, 2003
Ever been annoyed by the ballon that keeps showing when you minimize your callwave caller ID into the tray? It pestered the crap out of me! I happened to be mess'n around with the taskbar, one day and found the fix.
1. Right click an empty spot on the task bar, click properties, on taskbar index. Look in notification, see that the check is in the hide inactive icons. click the customize button.
2. From here the customization window opens. Go to your callwave service and click to "highlight", under behavior, click "scroll box" then click "always hide".While you are in there you can make other icons behaviors act the way you would like to see them displayed. I chose only a couple to view full time, for things that I wanted the fastest access to.

I cannot get Balloon Tips to work. I have tried editing Registry and added "EnableBalloonTips" to registry and set value =1. I have also disabled firewall, VirusScan and as many other active icons running in System Tray. I have looked in Tweak UI as well as Control Panel/Security Center and still cannot get Balloon Tips working. What else is there to do? This is my desktop PC. My LapTop works fine and they are both using the same Win XP Pro OS. Anyone have any suggestions aside from hand grenades? I have rebooted each time following changes to be sure they took effect.

I was on my Windows XP account and I accidentally opened PowerPoint and then a little notice speech bubble appeared on my taskbar so I clicked the little [X] and it didn't close. Then I ignored it, thinking it would close sooner or later, closed PowerPoint and then my computer froze (but i could move the mouse) and then the taskbar went black! I can't access the Start or Taskbar! Help me this isn't even my computer, it's actually my mom's and I'm afraid I broke it!Then I wanted to completely close my account, so I went on my mom's Window XP account and tried to close it but I'm still logged in! Are there Hot Keys I can use to log off without using the Start button?

This just started happening today. When I minimize any app that I am using, it doesn't show up on the toolbar with Start in the bottom left corner. Only way I can see what's been minimized is to open Windows Task Manager.Can anyone please tell me how to fix this?

I just ran across this problem on a computer and can't figure out how to fix it. When I start Notepad it starts up minimized on the taskbar and will not come up no matter what I try which isn't much. I just stays minimized. I can right click it and get Maximize, Restore etc. but it just stays there.

I have noticed since one of my last windows update that I am having a problem clicking once a minimized window to bring it on top. I literally have to click the minimized window three times before I can get it to come on top.The first time I click it shows the minimized window depressed then highlighted, the 2nd time I click it goes through the motion of minimizing an already minimized window (you actually see it minimizing); and the 3rd time I click brings the window to the front.

I wonder if there is a way to move the minimized windows icons between them (in windows Xp professional) for example if I open explorer and minimize and then one word file and minimize and then excel file and I minimize and now I would wanna put the minimized icon of excel on the first place?

Just recently, all of my programs, e-mail client (Juno) and Explorer open minimized. I max them out, and then close them, but it's still happening.I read somewhere that there is a registry fix for this. Does anyone out there have the fix (or other solution)?I do not have a restore point to go to.

I have had a problem recently where any minimized windows that are updated (such as IMs) don't flash on my taskbar.I have narrowed this to a problem in my register- I was told that Fore ground Lock Timeout is supposed to be set to 30d40, but doing so doesn't help. In addition, every time I reset my computer, the entry is reset to 0. What can keep my registry from being saving this information?Running Windows XP Pro, and I have no idea how this problem even started.

Suddenly, and without my doing, suddenly whatever program I open shows up on my bottom taskbar illegibly. It used to be that each program had a nice 1.5 inches or so all lined up along the taskbar below, from left to right.. Now, all the programs operate 1cm at the far right of my toolbar, between my language setting and the small-icon taskbar. They are all piled up on top of one another, regardless of application, with 2 small up and down arrow buttons. I can't even tell you how uncomfortable it is to switch from window to window or program to program.How can I switch this back?My computer is not restoring for some reason so I have to do this manually.

so I've had this problem for a while now and it's been bugging me for weeks until I found this nifty little board here, and a few others(they weren't that helpful).My taskbar won't show my windows when they're minized, or even open actually and the shortcut keys won't hide the extra icons I have anymore. I also screwed up really bad when I just tried to clean my computer with Mcafee quick cleaner and accidentally deleted all my system restore points. Restarting my computer obviously does nothing, so the problem is how do I restore my taskbar to its original state?

I use the Show Desktop feature on my taskbar often, however this also minimizes my dock. I have a program called Rocket Dock that I would like to stay maximized when I click Show Desktop so I was wondering if there's a way to exclude this program from being minimized.

I have a "Forums Folder" on my desktop.When I click on it it opens in a minimized position. I stretch it by the edges to full screen and all is fine.When I click on any of the shortcuts in that folder they sometimes open in a minimized position.I stretch again.The next time I go to open it, I have to do it all over again.

I have an issue with my new clean install on XP. Every time I boot, C:Program Files keps opening. Here is the stuff I have tried so far. I looked in msconfig, the startup folder and in Startup on my programs list and it doesn't show up in any of these places. It isn't a new program, so it's not because I installed it recently. Here is HiJack This log for reference. I dont have clue what's to look in this. But may be it will help you. Similarly I have copy-pasted contents from autoexec.bat,win.ini and sys.ini for debugging. You may notice that there is TaskMgr link in startup. But its just one of my app I need on startup in my taskbar. It startup as minimized and it has setting "Hide on Minimized" checked in TaskManager. So It remains in taskbar always.

I am running XPPRO with all latest updates and recently when I minimized any programs, it stopped showing the program on the taskbar. Now I do not know which programs are running or have to use the CTRL-TAB to switch between programs. I tried to look for setting which would re-enable this but could not find this.

Since reinstalling XP my minimized windows are not side by side on the task bar any longer there are two arrows which usually means they are in a list but they aren't, they just stack up on top of each other with only one icon which I have to keep clicking to resume the page I want to view.

I installed the Eset NOD32 3.0 antivirus, I wanted to remove it. I couldn't remove it on a conventional way, using the add/remove tool, so I removed it from my windows startup list, and then physically removed the folder from my HDD, and then used PC Tools Registry Mechanic thinking that it would do the trick,but it didn't. I tried various registry cleaning programs, but I just can't find it in the lists.

I recently installed Mcafee. I defraged my computer and restarted it. When it loaded up I noticed that everything is taking 2x as long to load and it is taking long time to even get the start button list up. I was able to get into the add/remove program list but nothing was there. I waited for about 10 minutes and then nothing still, I don't know any other way to remove McAfee, how to remove McAfee, add/remove program list won't work here.

I have tried previously to uninstall my HP Officejet G85 printer from HP Pavilion a1130n running XP Media. There is no Change/Remove button in Add/Remove Programs but the program is there, 150 MB, and the file suggested on the HP website for uninstalling older printers from XP produces a message that it's "unsupported" can't remember exact verbiage, been a while since last tried. Even reinstalled in the hopes that a message would come up to the effect "this program is already installed, do you want install to remove it prior to completing this install," but it just installs the printer again with a number after it ... I'm up to "hp officejet g series - 3."

My laptop is missing lots of programs under Add/Remove Programs that I know are installed. Furthermore, some that are listed don't have the Remove button next to it. The missing programs aren't listed in the Uninstall registry key and I'm confident there are not viruses on the machine.

I recently uninstalled Windows SP3 RC1 from my computer and reverted back to Windows SP2 through the use of Projekt (Project) Dakota. Before uninstallation though, one of my siblings had run this script to update to Windows SP3 RC2. I do not want to install the newest RC2, as I'm now waiting for a final release. I changed my Windows Update Settings to download but to not install, as it was already downloaded from yesterday. Is there anyway to remove the already downloaded but not installed update for Windows SP3 RC2, and is there anyway to remove the script (that tells the computer to download SP3 RC2?)

I was trying to remove windows messenger by going to control panel -> add/remove programs -> add/remove windows components I misread the directions for this windows XP setup box and made it so that only windows messenger had a checkmark because I thought this meant that only windows messenger would be modified removed unfortunately, this just meant windows messenger stayed the same and all the other components i had installed were removed. I know they are still on my computer since for accessories/games I can go to start -> run and type in something like "winmine" and minesweeper will open up, however if I go to the start menu and look in games it is empty
