Windows 10: Question about the taskbar?

Hey, I'm adjusting my taskbar. I just want these four symbols displayed there. Problem: The arrow above doesn't go away because there are some other programs hiding behind it. How do I get rid of them? I got rid of all but one: Windows Security, Macrium Reflect, Avira and ScreenHunter!

Thinking about Going back to Win8.1


If want to disable IE, still can. However, can't uninstall it like were able to in XP/98/whatever.
Here's how, although I find it useful in case Chrome or Firefox stops working and have to re-download it. *Wink
1. Search for turn windows features on or off and click it in the search results.

• 
  

2. When the app opens, uncheck Internet Explorer 11.

• 
  
  

3. Click Yes on the warning dialog.

• 
  

4. Click OK.

• 
  

5. Restart for the changes to finish.

 

About startup problem

Hi Jay,



It would be great if you can answer the following questions:

• What is the make and model of the computer?
• How did you upgrade to Windows 10?

I would suggest you to follow these steps and try to run the Power troubleshooter:

• Press Windows key + X on the keyboard.
• Click on Control panel.
• Type “Troubleshooting” without quotes in the Control panel
  search box.
• Click on Troubleshooting and click on View all.
• Click on Power troubleshooter and follow the on-screen instructions.

I would also suggest you to run the System maintenance troubleshooter by following the above steps.



Let us know the results.
