My start toolbar doubled its height. I tried to resize it using the cursor
but it wouldn't work. The start program icon are3 now stacke as is the clock
data. Any help would be appriciated.
 
First, unlock the Taskbar (right-click on Taskbar, uncheck
"Lock the Taskbar")

Click and drag the separator bar over to the right of the Taskbar
(It's the separator that looks like four dots and then three dots
running side by side vertically). It seems to allow you to create a
double-decker effect with the Taskbar. Once you drag the lower one to
the right of the Taskbar, it allows you to resize the Taskbar.

It's called the "Task Bar." The task bar is resizable, like a window. Put
the cursor on the edge and make it turn into a double-headed arrow. Then
click and drag it to the size you want.

If it won't resize, it may be locked. In that case, right click on it and
uncheck "Lock the Taskbar," Then try again.

Also note that if you have toolbars on the task bar on multiple lines, you
won't be able to reduce the task bar size to fewer than that number of
lines. Put all the toolbars on one line first.
