No Taskbar When Chrome/Firefox Is Open

Hi Friends!

Yesterday one of my colleague summoned me this time and asked me that he is not able to see task bar at the bottom of her computer when Chrome/Firefox is open. I asked him in plain words rather sleepily, 'Dude just revert whatever you did, & it should be fine!'.

But the element of surprise was that he did not do anything[apart from browsing some images, ya I know its weird!].

I did not know what was wrong so told him to do what I call as the Elixir for Windows.

The Elixir is to reboot explorer.exe process. So lets see how it is done.

#1: Open Task Manager(on keyboard, press CTRL+SHIFT+ESC)

#2: Follow the instructions to kill the explorer process



N.B. Once you kill the explorer process, there will be no task bar or anything on your desktop. Worry not! In the next step, we are again going to learn to start the process. :)

#3: On the Task Manager, navigate to File -> New Task(Run...) as shown below:



#4: Type explorer.exe in the space provided and hit enter/press OK



And everything is back on track! It should right, doesn't this is exactly what an elixir supposed to do?!


Now be assured and browse whatever you want, let this problem occur, we are equipped with its solution!

Happy Surfing!
[Apologies for the bad quality of images, can't help!]
