Hey guys,

Lately my bottom right display on the task bar is disappearing. This includes the clock, and all system tray icons.

All I have to do is open the task bar properties and click OK and then it comes back. This does not happen after a reboot, it just happens suddenly for no reason, and a couple times a week.

Any explanation for this?


Thanks

OK, I gave that a try. Will have to give it time and see if it acts up again or if this fixed it.

Thanks for the help :)
