So I turn on my computer today, and all of a sudden the minimized tabs for
the programs I'm using are on the wrong side of the taskbar. They're on the
right side, near the clock, rather than the left side by the start menu. They
are also so small that I cannot read them, and if I have more than two they
don't show up. I know it's a minor problem, but it's really annoying to me,
and I can't figure out how to make them go to the way they were before. Can
someone tell me how? Thanks so much for any help!
 
Have you tried a System Restore?
Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Restore
 
Right click on the taskbar and unlock it. You may see a series of vertical dots that indicate
another tool bar is using the left side of your task bar. (typically the Quick launch uses this
area). You can either reduce the size of the offending tool bar or remove it totally. Remember to
relock your taskbar when you have the problem solved.

Hey thank you all so much! My problem is now fixed! Once I unlocked it these
buttons appeared and I was able to just click and drag them back into the
right spot. Thank you all so much :]
