34768 2002-02-07 06:28:00 Some old fart at my work has somehow got rid of the start button off the screen of his home computer.
Please help me help him retrieve it.
Any ideas, thanks in waiting.

If its the whole taskbar, it may have been resized - to bring it back, move the mouse to the very bottom of the screen, and see if the pointer turns into a two-pointed arrow... if so, click and drag the taskbar up until its how it should be.

He may have dragged it away from the bottom. Run your mouse round all the edges (sides and top) of the screen to see.

Also check to see if it's on autohide. Start, settings, taskbar and start menu, make sure auto hide isn't checked.
