How do you remove unwanted taskbar?

Right click an empty space on the taskbar. Now click, Properties, Taskbar, Customize, and look under Current Items, click under Behavior an item you wish to hide. You will then have the option to change how this icon appears by clicking the V and looking at the options.Actually, the above method only allows you to HIDE the icons. They are still there though, and still make booting up slower. To actually REMOVE them from the tray, you have to go to the Start Menu/Run... then type "msconfig". Then just uncheck the items you want to remove from the Taskbar.If you want to remove a single program from the taskbar you simply right click on the unwanted program and click on delete.Note this will not remove the program from the computer just the taskbar shortcut.The icons on the right, next to the clock are known as the 'system tray' icons. These icons are actually programs that are currently running and therefore in most cases you will not want to remove them however you may want to 'hide' them. Do this by RIGHT clicking on the system tray and choosing PROPERTIES and then CUSTOMIZE button. You can choose "always show" (I recommend this for antivirus and volume control for sure) "hide when inactive" this is what they will most be set as at first, you should change these to "always hide" when you know you don't need to see any changes for monitoring.If you have Windows XP:Go to the "Start" menu on your computerSelect "Control Panel"Click on the "Add or Remove Programs" iconFind "icon name" in the list of programs, select it and click on the "Remove" button to its right.Follow on-screen prompts to remove the applicationIf you have Windows Vista/Windows 7:Go the "Start" menu on your computerSelect "Control Panel"Click on "Programs"Then choose "Programs and Features"Find "icon name" in the program list and click "Uninstall"Follow on-screen prompts to remove the application

How can you bring back a task bar that disappeared off the screen for windows xp?

Some people have found that when they open Task Manager, the tabs and taskbar have suddenly disappeared. This behavior can occur if Task Manager is running in "tiny footprint" mode. If you accidentally double-click the empty space in the border around the tabs, Task Manager switches to this mode. To switch Task Manager back to its normal display mode, just double-click the top border of the window.
