    Lost Taskbar


    I don't know where to go with this problem so I decided General would work.

    I was playing f Hoyle card games. I have the CD from which I install the games. I clicked to run it full screen. When I did that a little box popped up warning me that the best resolution is such and such. Then my full screen card game went back to normal window size and a little thing popped up that said it was adjusting my monitor and the next thing I knew my task bar was gone.

    I can push that little button on my monitor for auto adjustment and the screen flickers a little as it appears to be making an adjustment, and my taskbar becomes visible, but then as soon as that adjustment has finished my taskbar disappears again. I have checked my display settings and its at the recommended setting. Everything is working, except I can't access my taskbar, which means I can't access my start button.

    Sure hope someone can help.

    :)

    Are you referring to the clock system icon on the taskbar?

    If so, I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below:


    • Click on the search bar on the taskbar.

    • Type system icons.

    • Under Turn System Icons ON or OFF, turn On the Clock and check with the issue.

    Hope it helps.
