Thank you so much! I now have my icons back! I lost my taskbar icons shortly after running superantispyware. Could that have had anything to do with it? Is that a good program to use??

Thank you. My taskbar wasn't showing the buttons for the open/minimized windows. Running above script solved the problem. Thanks.

Hello - I went to Kelly's corner, but I couldn't see the tweaks page because of a compression problem. I'm not sure what to do now - any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!

Unfortunately "a compression problem" doesn't tell me anything. I'd need more details like specific error messages to even try to be of any help.

Greetings! I have the same problem: Running programs not appearing in the task bar. Trouble is this thing is still running on Windows ME and your "fix" is for XP. I hope there is still hope for this old computer of mine. Thanks!

Problem Solved.
