  1. Why is my taskbar freezing up when my ethernet is plugged in and How do I fix it?


    When I load up my pc with the ethernet cord plugged in the Taskbar is just stuck and never loads. To get around this all I did was unplug and re plug my ethernet cord but when I do that I get no internet from my pc and when I try to load or open anything then it just gets stuck on loading. Can anybody please help me?

  3. Windows 10 Taskbar is not working and "fixes" don't fix it.

    Hi Carole,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community and being a part of Windows 10.

    I understand your concern about accessing Taskbar on Windows 10. We will help you with resolving the issue.

    Provide us the additional information to understand the issue and assist you better:

    • What exactly happens when you press Alt+Tab keys from the keyboard to switch between the apps?
    • Have you made any changes to the operating system prior to this issue?
    • What are the troubleshooting steps you have tried to resolve the issue?

    As you said Taskbar is not working, and you will minimize all the opened apps to access the one you wish to from Taskbar. Be clear with how exactly you are trying to accessing the apps from Taskbar.

    Step 1: I suggest you to check if you have enabled the Auto-hide option for Taskbar, if so try to disable and check if it helps.

    Steps to enable auto-hide Taskbar:

    • Right click in the empty space on the Taskbar, click on
      Properties,
    • Under Taskbar tab, uncheck the Auto-hide the Taskbar option, click on
      Apply and Ok.

    Step 2: I suggest you to install all the pending updates on your device.

    • Connect to the internet.
    • Press Windows key and type
      updates.
    • Click on Check for updates.
    • Under Windows Updates, click on
      Check for updates.
    • Try to install the updates being shown.

    Hope it helps. Get back to us with an updated status of this issue and brief description for further assistance.

  4. Why is my taskbar freezing up when my ethernet is plugged in and How do I fix it?

    Windows 10 after upgade to 1709 if keyboard not plugged then ethernet device is not detected.

    When I start my windows 10 (1709 build) without plugging keyboard and mouse, it does not detect Ethernet card.

    Mother board is of Intel and Ethernet is on board (integrated).

    I have also installed latest Ethernet driver by auto updated drivers from internet.

    Steps:

    Shutdown pc

    Remove keyboard and mouse

    Keep lan cable plugged

    Start pc

    Ethernet device is not detected. It shows in list in Device manager screen. but with Yellow triangle.

    Then I need to plug keyboard and just do a hardware scan then Ethernet is detected and all ok after that.

    When I start with keyboard and mouse plugged in then it detects Ethernet card and available on LAN.

    Am I missing something?
