Reply: (edit)Stuart, Go to the link below and under the letter "T"--"Taskbar" click on "Minimized Programs Missing" to download a vbs file fix. Download .vbs file and save it to your hard drive (you may want to right click and use Save Target As). Double click the vbs file. You will be prompted when the script is done. NOTE: If your anti-virus software warns you of a "malicious" script, this is normal if you have "Script Safe" or similar technology enabled. These scripts are not malicious, but they do make changes to the System Registry. Minimized Programs Missing Fix Tufenuf

Reply: (edit)I have found a solution normally if there is no taks bar or icons on the desktop and if it is a new computer it sounds weird.. I have across this problem once that is my counter part had installed games + wireless adapter and after that this happened so i have found that either a ndr (non destructive recovery) or chkdsk /r is bound to fix this issue completely ps.:- while running a full system recovery or reinstall os that is operating system u would loose every form of data which u have put it... i would caution u while proceeding with this please do send me an email at schwartz.patrick@gmail.com
