If you can't get to it with the taskbar gone.

The quickest way is to push the keys on the keyboard "windows key" + R keys that will open the run

They said the taskbar had come back, so what's the problem?

Also, have a look at that screenshot; looks like they pressed F11.

It's not unknown for full screen applications to screw up and carry on being fullscreen anyway.

Not that they shouldn't do a malware check; one can always do a malware check, no harm in that.

Good evening Veltas

Yes they did say it came back but there has to be a reason of why it disappeared. That is why I asked them to run for malware / virus scans and also to do a file check because if it comes up clean there may be a corrupt windows file.

When windows 7 first came out there where may people that had this issue. With the taskbar disappearing completely and some times just the taskbar would be gone but the start button / globe would be there.

I am just tying to help the OP find out what the issue is and where it started from. Mike
