Hi!

After installing the recognizer pack and used the "round" (that changes orientation) button a couple of times the Iput Panel button on my taskbar has become huge (whole taskbar width) and the application buttons (whatever they are called; the ones that come in the taskbar when you start an application) have disapeared.

I tried system restore to before I installed the recognizer pack, and it helped somewhat; I got a minimal area between the language toolbar and the input panel button about an inch in width, and when I unlocked the taskbar to make it wider it disappeared again.

Anyone have the same problem or knows what to do about it?

The machine I'm using is an Acer travelmate C300.

Regards,

Rudolf

There is a taskbar tool created by MVP Kelly Theriot that cures all kinds
of taskbar woes. Perhaps it will help you with your problem? The free
version of the program will address the problems that you have described.
The pay version is a whopping $5 if you should need all of the tools
functions.

Thanks!
That did the trick, allthough I have to run this script at almost every other boot...

I'm glad it helped. Sorry that the problem is reoccuring. The cause can be
tricky to track down. Usually it's due to some third party addon that runs
continuously, a third party "cleaning" program. On occasion - a third party
Windows customizing app.
