I have a PC running Windows 98 that when you open a program it doesn't appear on the taskbar. The only way to toggle between the open programs is to Alt/Tab your way through them. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

Is your task bar hidden? to unhide the task bar right click it go to properties and click the autohide off, also there are start icons which you can click the check box to display. Otherwise you may wish to download tweakui to perform more modifications, yuo can find a link to download it through zdnet.com.
Hope this helps

I ran through everything in disply properties and about all i could change was the border. have you tried using a theme or a different theme and do you then get them back in the toolbar? I haven't checked out tweakui yet but I will and I'll get back to you.

Tweakui won't help, I searched my registry for toolbar and god the number of matches I got, most pointed to another registry key, sorry can't help youthat way. Is it 98 or 98 se?
