I used to have the vojume control (slide) in the system
tray and today I looked and it was gone. I went to the
sound area of the control panel and checked the box to
place it in the taskbar, and it says it is not
installed. So if it got deleted somehow by another on my
computer how do I get it back. Thanks

Volume Control - The volume icon does not appear in the
notification area (system tray)

Make sure Hide Inactive is disabled in Taskbar
Properties. In Sound and Audio Devices Properties, make
sure "Place volume icon in the taskbar" is checked. If it
still doesn't work, here are two workarounds:

Go to Start/Log off (log off then log back on).
Right-click the taskbar & select Task Manager under
Processes tab select Explorer.Exe & End Task. Under
Applications tab select New Task, type in "explorer" and
click OK.
