Taskbar Icons Problem by M73A on 03-27-2005 at 02:44 PM

i cannot see my volume icon in the taskbar even though it is set to 'show icon in taskbar' from the volume controls in the control panel. and when you right click goto properties and click customize it is set to always show the volume icon but it doesnt....how can i get it back? what is wrong with it?

thanks

When you have done it have you extended the bar by double clicking on the two arrows at the start of the bar (I'm guessing you use XP)

Start > Control Panel > Sounds and Audio devices properties

Make sure that the tick box is on "place volume icon in the task bar"

its not there either....plus it should be in the other part as its set to 'always show'

Ahh i thought he meant he'd checked this..

My default was "hide when inactive"

try setting it so it doesn't show, restart your computer, then set it to show and restart again
