My volume control is no longer on my task bar. I went to
control panel and it wouldn't let me add it back to the
task bar. Now my computer has no volume. The speakers are
plugged in. Where do I go from here?
 
How did you try to add it back?

Even if it isn't in the taskbar, you should still have sound. Here's a
couple of things to check:

Check sound in Control Panel:
-Open Control Panel (Start - Control Panel)
-Click on Sounds, Speech, and Audio devices
-Click on Sounds and Audio devices in the next window
-Make sure you are not muted, and that your volume is up
-Also check your speaker volume

For the taskbar icon:
-Right click on the taskbar
-Choose Properties
-In the Taskbar tab, click Customize...
-Make sure the Volume icon is not set to "Always hide". If you want to see
it all the time, set it to "Always show"
