I can't get them back, right click start button, properties, notification
area, system icons - the three checkboxes are grayed out. Only the clock
checkbox is active... What to do? Thanks, --ch

Try to "kill" *explorer.exe* process bu pressing *ctrl+shift+esc*,find
explorer.exe and select end process,still don't close *Task Manager*.
Now go to File menu in Task Manager,select *New Tas (Run)* and type
explorer...press Enter.

Now you should see options un-grayed select them and click OK.Repeat
this with selecting and reselecting and then restart PC.

Worked for me
Click to expand...

OK, that worked for now, thanks. Is this likely to re-occur often?
