Windows 10: New HP Laptop set up = Taskbar. Help Please!

Hello Have just got and set up a new Windows laptop and copied everyyhing from my old Acer and all ok except for tyhe taskbar at bottom of screen, On my old laptop I had a language icon in the taskbar which showed EN and when I wanted to type in Greek I toggled it to EL There is no way I can get this now! I have tried everything the 'experts' said but all I can do is to hold down the Windows and the space bar together and both languages appear on the desktop and I can alter the ,languages that way - no prpblems really but.... I have gone into Languages - keyboard and highlighted the show in taskbar and ticked the box below to show icon.There is then an advanced option which shows both English and Greek highlited with the word 'none' beside them. If, I rt click in the taskbar there is a list of icons which include clock, sound, etc but no mention of languages! What am I missing? It shows on the old Acer and going through the sequences on the old laptop it shows the same! Thanks everyone

:)

 

Windows 10 Taskbar sometimes on top of full-screen applications

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I suggest you to change the Screen Resolution and check if this helps. Follow the steps below to do the same:

• Press ‘Windows ’ key on the keyboard.
• In the search box, type Settings
  
• SelectSystem > Display > Advanced display settings.
• Under Resolution, select a new value. We suggest you stick with the resolution marked
  "(Recommended)”.

Also try locking and then unlocking the Taskbar and check if this helps. Follow the steps below:

• Right-click an empty space on the taskbar.
• If Lock the Taskbar has a check mark next to it, the taskbar is locked.
  
• If it does not have a check mark, click Lock the Taskbar.

Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

I don't know why everyone hates hp so much? I have used 3 laptops from hp in last 10 yrs..latest is hp envy 17 3d , 4.5 yrs till now, first time encountered hardware problem now, that got fixed too with routine service...might need to replace fan later. But no major issue till now.. working like new even now
