Solved Canceled process - toolbar & desktop icons?? Help!

Help! Screwed up big-time. :0(

I accidentally deleted (canceled?) some processes, and now I have no bar at the bottom of my screen (the one that shows the open programs, open windows, laptop battery time left, clock, and most importantly, the Windows program icon that allows me to get to the control panel, etc.) and no program icons on my desktop. I can use Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get the Task Manager, and I can access the internet from AOL, which was the only program I had open at the time this happened.

Please tell me there is an easy way to get this toolbar and my icons back!

Hello Lisa, and welcome to Vista Forums.

If you mean that you used "End Process" in Task Manager on the processes, then no worries. Logging off/on or restarting the computer should sort it.

If that is not what you did, then please go ahead and post back with more details on how/what you did to delete or cancel the processes.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Restart worked -- thanks, Shawn!

You're most welcome.
