Hi,

I have rather a strange problem. My friend has a PC with Windows 98SE as an OS.

The system runs fine except that the Windows Taskbar does not display the tabs for the various windows that are being used.

For example, if there are 2 Internet Explorer windows being worked on simultaneously, the Taskbar remains empty. It remains empty even if a single window is open.

And what is most annoying is, that if an open window is minimised, its gone !!! It simply vanishes. There's nothing on the Taskbar.

However, the 'Quick-Launch' toolbar and other toolbars work fine. It is just the Taskbar that seems to have nothing to do with whats going on in the system.

Any solution to this strange problem, people ??? :confused:

Thanks.

Open regedit and goto:

Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies

If u find a key named "Explorer" under it, then delete it.
