Computer Experts, Please Help! XP Taskbar Problem |
Lead | ||
|
for some strange reason, my taskbar keeps appearing and disappearing.. i tried the usual Task Manager > New Task > Explorer but it still appears and
disappears.. also, when i try opening a program(s) through New Task, as the Explorer.exe closes/disappears everything i have open except for the Task Manager
closes as well.. I had recently installed Photoshop CS2 then uninstalled, if that is of any help.. i also tried to System Restore but it says that i don't
have any restore points.. Please help me out NT, this problem is drivin me crazy

Right click taskbar, then go to properties, then on the taskbar tab unclick "autohide taskbar".

also, would reinstalling windows xp get rid of this problem? It is very likely. And I gotta ask, have you rebooted? Does it happen in safe mode?

Chances are there is a corruption in the OS somewhere... but the obvious things that would cause this is just Spyware infection and a corrupt system file.
Which can be caused by something simple as a software install/uninstall. And if it doesnt happen in safe mode, then you can narrow it down to being a corrupt
service used by windows xp in normal operation.
Yes a OS restore would probably fix this issue. If you can just do a repair install of xp be sure to backup stuff just in case the repair install does not work and you have to do a full restore as last resort. You can also try doing spyware scans just to check the pc out if you have time. |
