Start/Taskbar Placement

Easy. Make sure the task bar is not locked, then just click and hold a blank spot on the bar and drag to the bottom of the screen. Can also put on the left or right side. You can then right click on the bar and lock it in the desired position.

Not so easy KirkD. Tried that earlier. The taskbar is not locked but the dragging function does not

work--left or right. It works in other areas but not with the taskbar. What next?

 

You might try a system restore to a time before changing the battery. I can't think of anything else right now; I'll look around.

Try this:

- Open the Context Menu
- Click on MOVE
- Use the arrow keys to move the cursor arrow toward the side of the screen where you want the Task Bar.
- As you get close to the side of the screen, the Task Bar should (may) snap to that side. It may bounce there then back - don't worry.
- With the arrow near the desired edge, press enter and the Bar should move to that side.

Thanks for tuning me into the basics. System restore did the trick! Don't know why it didn't

occur to me since I occasionally use it to delete any hidden worms. Just for the heck of it,

what and where is the context menu?

Just realized that the message can't contain left or right angle brackets. Press [alt][space] to get the context menu. I had it right the first time but anything inside the angle brackets won't go through.

I must have been half asleep last night. Close all windows and then press to bring up the context menu for the task bar. Then follow the rest of the instructions.

For an open window, right click on the left side of the title bar to get the context menu for that window.

Thanks Kirk. I've never had to use that little box of tools before. But now I'm in control.!
