    Taskbar empty even after 10 reinstalled with ISO file


    Three weeks ago, my taskbar icons disappeared. After trying many suggestions I've found on forums, I decided to reinstall windows 10 using the iso file and keeping my programs and apps. When that finished loading, my taskbar was once again populated with icons. Life was good again. Then, this morning they were gone again. I really miss those guys.If any of you have another suggestion, I'd be happy to hear it. This might help with your diagnosing the problem. I can bring up my icons by hitting start, then right clicking on any of the programs normally on my taskbar, then "unpin from taskbar". With that, they all show up. I just need to pin the one I just unpinned and I'm back to normal.I'd like to not have to do this every morning.Thanks very much for your interest. I look forward to hearing a solution.

  2. windows 10 upgrade to u hv to buy after 7/29 nomatter what u do?

    if i use the media creation tool to create an iso on dvd can i still use that after 7/29/16 or do i hv to buy windows 10 after 7/29/16 even after the iso is created. and if i manage to install windows then create a iso backup of windows 10 would i be able
    to use that to reinstall windows 10 after 7/29/16 without hving to buy it?, or do i hv to buy win 10 if after 7/29/16 something goes wrong n for some reason i hv to reinstall win 7 from softboot will i be stuck with windows 7 or wil i still be able to reinstall
    win 10 from the iso system backup or update tool?

    also would it be possible to create a dual boot cd with both windows 10 system backup and the windows 10 iso file that will be burnt to it so i can either choose to reinstall from system backup or install from the iso from media creation tool (so i dont
    hv to use 2 cd's with the seperate iso's burnt to them)

    i hv win 7 home

  3. Windows 10 Mail App shows 9999 unread emails in Inbox

    Since installing the Anniversary Update my Windows Mail Tile shows 9999 unread emails even when the Inbox is empty. The Taskbar icon similarly shows 99 unread emails. I've tried deleting and reinstalling my email account but it's just the same. The App
    now seems baked into Windows 10 and there is no uninstall option otherwise I'd try to uninstall and re-install from the Store.

    Taskbar empty even after 10 reinstalled with ISO file

    Hi, please try creating a new user account for test purposes and see if it behaves in the same way or not.

    This may help to distinguish between something specific to your user account and its settings, installed programs etc and Windows corruption.

    Then, using your normal account, please boot to Safe Mode and see if the problem is present then.

    Thanks.
