    It didn't really do anything. I clicked Enable first, didn't really see notice anything different. Then I clicked Disable, then Enable again. Maybe I'm doing it wrong, it's not doing anything.

    Your quick launch bar looks like its taken over the taskbar

    Right click Taskbar -> Toolbars -> Quick Launch

    Also take two Asprin and call me in the morning.

    I got a question and I most likely will be hi-jacking this thread, for some reason on my other computer when you double click folders, it ends up going to search because that is the first thing on the list when you right click instead of open. Like 3 years ago it was normal but one day it just changed, anyone know how to fix that?

    If that were the case all the applications should have been squished near the clock.

    Than its a virus.... format! Also try creating a new user and see if the same problem happens.

    Or just re-install windows.

    Welcome to the internet.

    Classroom session #1.

    Important internet lesson; Have a problem? Use google first.

    Step 1:

    Type in "http://www.google.com" into your URL bar in the browser and hit "Go".

    Step 2:

    Insert your problem. I put in; processes not showing on taskbar.

    Step 3:

    Look for reasonable pages. Example:

    First link: Workaround for Vista Taskbar Thumbnail Previews Not Showing ..
    Nope, not Vista. No luck there.

    Second link: Technology Thoughts: Windows XP taskbar not showing up
    Nope, taskbar does show, just not applications. No luck there.

    Moving down..

    Fourth link: Taskbar NOT showing windows which are open [Archive] - PC World Forums
    Ahh, perfect! The same problem!

    Step 4:

    Open the page and browse. If it's a long article, use "ctrl+f" to find the specific problem in the article faster than reading the entire article.






    Here's the page for you also, so you can view it for the solutions they listed.
