Open Task Manager and double-click anywhere on the top Window border.
Somehow, you managed to convert Task Manager to run in "Tiny Footprint Mode".

Hey,

I don't believe that is what he meant.

I believe he has accidentally disabled taskbar notification icons. More than
likely though Tweak UI.

So download Tweak UI if you did not use it. Then go to Taskbar and Start
menu and then check under setting to the right "Show taskbar notification
icons". Then logoff or reboot and log back on and should be back to normal.

Take Care,
Will

I don't think that's what hulahop meant was his problem -
his Taskbar may be in autohide mode - he never mentioned
Task Manager...

Please lose the caps. It's considered yelling, is incredibly rude and makes
your posts very hard to read...

That's not your only problem. You're keyboard's broken.

Fortunately, I can fix your keyboard failure: $12.00. Plus shipping.
