Volume control is missing from task bar windows 7

I have tried all tips and tricks but that is not at all helping. 
My version of windows is genuine.

Hi,
This issue can be caused by following factors:
1. service error

Step 2: check the permission of following keys, if there is any other keys besides System, administrator, users and Trustedinstaller, please remove it.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32
Step 3: Log onto Safe mode and scan virus.
Step 4: Scan system file error by running following command as admin:
SFC /SCANNOW
Any error message, please post back the cbs.log under C:\Windows\Logs\CBS for our research.

  • Satellite A - Battery/Power Indicator Missing from Task Bar

    My battery/power indicator is missing from the task bar. When I attempt to turn it on, it's grayed out and I don't have the option to select it. I've checked the hidden icons functions, etc. When I searched on google, there were several fixes - but all are way out of my area of expertise.
    Please help!

    Hi
    Maybe you have installed an software which affected this Windows option.
    It could be also a damage registry entry
    Maybe you could clean the OS using CCleaner and repair the registry
    Im not quite sure if it will help you but its worth a try

  • Firefox 4 is not appearing in Task bar or some times it is Disappearing from task bar when i am minimising the window. so, i had to go to Task manager and find the icon.Its becoming big messy if tabs are not found , to switch programmes.

    firefox icon is missing from "Task bar"when i am minimising the window

    I am unwilling to attempt navigation away from these sites. The pop-ups that occur on the attempt to leave a site or to close the browser are exit traps offering incentive to stay.
    Once upon a time, when the internet was less dangerous, I would be willing to close the exit pop-ups. Now, after twice being infected with malware trying to close the pop-ups, I now force close whichever browser I am using.
    Recently, I clicked on the red X to close one pop-up, and it installed a trojan that I had to pay to be removed. When I clicked on 'Leave' in another exit pop, it didn't exit and it turned out I was giving permission to run a script file. Now that criminals have learned these exit pop-ups can be used to force a click action, the sites using them have become dangerous.
    If I force the browser to close using Task manager, Please tell me how to stop FireFox from sending me directly back to the same site because it mistakenly believes it crashed when it did not. I forced it to close because I was on a site that had taken control of my browser and was not allowing me to leave the site.
    No other browser sends me back to the potentially dangerous sites. I prefer Firefox, but the new version must have a setting that allows me to get safely away from a problem site?

  • The main develop module controls have disappeared from the develop window.  How do I recover them?

    The main develop module controls have disappeared from the develop window.  How do I recover them?  I'm working with Lightroom 5.3.  The missing controls are the sliders for exposure, contrast, clarity, etc.  I must have inadvertantly clicked something that made them disappear but nothing I've tried brings them back.  I've never had this experience in the years I've been using Lightroom (since version 1.1).

    Right-click on any other item Tone Curve for ex., and check on "Basic" if that's what you are missing.
    If you miss the complete Develop module right-click any other item  Library for ex and put a check on Develop

  • After updating waterfox 12.0 to 15.0, but while launching from task bar its giving error not compatable version 15.0 min/max version 12.0

    after updating waterfox 12.0 to 15.0, and i opend the app and pin it to the task bar (windows 7 64bit enterprise edition) but while launching from task bar its giving error not compatable version 15.0 min version 12.0 ,max version 12.0

    Such an error is caused by some files that weren't updated successfully, so you are left with a mixture of files from different Firefox versions.<br />
    There is usually some security software involved that protects .ini files against modification (update).
    You will still have to do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before reinstalling a new copy of Firefox.

  • The volume control has disappeared from the music app on my iPhone and i can't play any music how do i fix this?

    The volume control has disappeared from the music app on my iPhone and i can't play any music how do i fix this?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Download Bash script running from Task-bar folder

    Hi, Not sure why but when Im trying to open my Downloads file from the task bar its openning up on my desktop as "Downloads-Bash script! how do i stop this please. Its the same if I open from Finder.
    Thank you all in anticipation of a resolve.

    Enter the following command in a Terminal window by copying or dragging (don’t type):
    xattr -c ~/Downloads
    Press return. You can then quit Terminal. Try the action again. If the same thing happens, relaunch the Finder by selecting
     ▹ Force Quit ▹ Finder
    and pressing return or clicking Relaunch.

  • Unpin from Task bar AFTER program is deleted

    I have a situation where I am trying to use PowerShell to Unpin a shortcut from the task bar after the program has been deleted. The shortcut has been renamed (from the idiotic name Autodesk used to start with) and thus it is orphaned after uninstall because
    Windows doesn't manage these things gracefully. The code I am using uses the common approach of digging into the shortcut to extract the Verbs array, and then assigned the Unpin verb to $Verb and then does a $Verb.DoIt(). But of course the the target no longer
    exists, so there is no Verbs object to dig a Verb out of. 
    I have found the various related posts, and there are issues
    1: Deleting the reg key and losing all pinned items is a no go. I am removing one piece of software, and I want to remove that shortcut and no others.
    2: I know I can do this manually, but my whole goal is automation, and the fact that I CAN do it manually suggests there should be a way to do it with PowerShell.
    3: I have tried getting the Verb from the shortcut as well, but it seems like the shortcut really is just a passthrough to the Target, so no target, no Verb from the shortcut.
    4: I have also tried just deleting the shortcut file from User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar, but that leaves an even more orphaned shortcut on the task bar, that not only doesn't have a target, it doesn't
    even have an icon, just a white "page".
    So, how does one get to whatever Verbs are being accessed when doing this manually? Is there some way to apply a generic Verb?
    Gordon

    Okay so after some digging i found a way for you to do it but the best way i have found is using the actual user rights. I tested this out as a login script that ran before the user even saw their desktop.
    The task bar has a registry key that has to be cleared and when explorer is started the key gets created based on the items listed in the directory the shortcuts are stored. If you have any issues let me know.
    #Remove the chached settings in the registry. This will comeback once explorer is restarted
    get-item -path HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Taskband -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
    remove-itemproperty -name Favorites, FavoritesRemovedChanges, FavoritesChanges, FavoritesResolve, FavoritesVersion -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue |
    Out-Null
    #Remove ShortCut From Current User:
    Remove-Item -Path "C:\Users\$($Env:UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar\Pandora.lnk" -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Out-Null
    #Restart Explorer
    Stop-Process -Name "explorer" -Force | Out-Null

  • Firefox 8.0 occasionally disappears from task bar when minimized but keeps running

    Running Firefox 8.0 on Windows XP, have 12 tabs open. Occasionally, when I minimize Firefox, it disappears from the task bar. I know that Firefox is still running because one of the open tabs is a radio station stream on Silverlight. The only way to get Firefox back is to click a link in an email then Firefox will open in a new tab (it is my default browser)

    I am guessing it is because you minimise Firefox to the Windows Xp task bar but have ot either locked that or set it to be on top so it may disappear from view.
    When the task bar is visible left click any space area on the taskbar the popup will have options including
    * '''''lock task bar''''' if you tick that the task bar stays the same size
    * '''''properties''''' if you click on that you get other options for customising the task bar
    * also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taskbar

  • Since replacing hard drive, "restore previous session" button doesn't work, can only do it through history tab. Also will not start up from task bar icon.

    Hi, been using Firefox for some years, had to replace hard drive recently and re loaded Firefox. Since then, the restore previous session button doesn't work, but I can do it from the History tab. Also Firefox itself won't start from the task bar or desktop, only the start menu.
    Using Windows XP

    This function may not be available for mobile yet. You can put your suggestions to the [[Suggestion Box]]. Thanks!

  • HP LaserJet 2420 'Print on both sides (manually)' is missing from the current Windows 7 PCL6

    Dear Support,
    I have a HP LaserJet 2420 printer connected to my home network and I would like to use it from my desktop PC (connected with cable to the network) and from my notebook (connected with wifi to the network). I use Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (EN) on both of them and I installed the current Win7 PCL6 (v5.7.0) driver downloaded from the official HP site.
    I would like to print on both sides, but the 'print on both sides (manually)' option is missing from the 'Finishing' tab of the Printing preferences option.
    If I turn to 'Installed' the 'Duplex Unit (for 2-Sided Printing)' under the 'Device Settings' tab of the Printer properties it doesn't work because this printer doesn't support the automatic print on both sides. 
    I don't want it work automatic only manual, but it is still missing. I have never experience it with much simple printer.
    Please help to solve the problem! Thank you!
    And what is the difference between the PCL5 and PCL6 and PostScript drivers?
    Kind regards,
    Szilárd Kurunczi
