- Control Panel Icon suddenly missing
- Posted by Jeff on May 17th, 2006
Hi,
This morning; when I opened up my laptop that runs XP PRO SP2; I went
to the control panel(classic view) and noticed that there is an icon
missing-Totally gone!!! blank space between Phone and Modem icon and Power
Options icon. There was something there because the field is still there but
blank. I don't remember what is supposed to be there and don't have many
extra options icons on the control panel. Don't want to try system restore
as I just downloaded WMP11 and don't want to have to rollback. Anyone know
what standard icon should be there? Between Phone and Modem and Power
options? HELP
Jeff

Hi Jeff
Well, we keep being warned about using beta stuff on our operation
computers - its for test and should only be used on a system used for
testing - unless you are a tester?
MS has not been very lucky recently with the beta stuff and those terrible
updates.
Good luck - with any luck there will be a patch to patch the updated patch
that.........;-)

Try the following:
Right click at the taskbar and then click properties
In the box click Advanced tab
then, look fro control panel and make sure that it's set to be show!
