There used to be a gray bar at the bottom that I could use to scroll across pages
Hello, thank you for using Howly. I’ll be happy to help you out! May I ask your name?
*****
Nice to meet you, *****!
Could you please tell me what program/app you are referring to?
there used to be a gray bar at the bottom that I could use to scroll across pages. now it's gone. how can i get it back?
*****, please, refer to the question above.
on my google chrome
Thank you for the clarification!
is a person going to talk to me on the phone to help me?
Currently, we don't have an option to communicate via calls. However, I am ready to tackle this problem with you right now via chat.
can you tell me how to get back the gray bar across the bottom for scrolling across pages?
Are you talking about this bar?
no, it was a bar that was on top of the bar at the bottom with the start button, etc.
Could you, please, send me a screenshot of where it is supposed to be so I can more clearly understand your request??
i don't know how to do that
Press Ctrl + PrtScn keys. The entire screen changes to gray including the open menu. Select Mode, or in earlier versions of Windows, select the arrow next to the New button. Select the kind of snip you want, and then select the area of the screen capture that you want to capture.
To attach pictures to our chat, you need to press the paper clip button in the lower right corner of the chat window. Then you have either to choose an image on your device or take a photo right away. Then confirm sending.
Is everything clear with the provided instruction?
i don't seem to be able to do this. At the bottom of my google chrome display page there is a bar with the start button and all the other buttons... excel, word, etc... there used to be a gray bar just above that one that I could use to scroll from one side to the other. today that gray bar ias gone. there must be some way to get it back.
You mean the task bar, right, *****?
Like this:
yes, i think so
Got it, thank you
Could you please tell me when and how did the problem occur?
not sure. the gray bar for scrollong from side to side was there last night, not there this morning.
perhaps I accidentally touched something that made it disappear.
You can press Windows + I to open Windows Settings, and click Personalization.
Then click Taskbar in the left pane to open Taskbar settings window.
Then you can check if Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode is Off or On, and make sure it is in Off status
How do I press Windows +1
Press the Win logo button + the I button
where is the win logo button?
The Windows key is a standard key on most keyboards on computers built to use a Windows operating system. It is labeled with a Windows logo, and is usually placed between the Ctrl and Alt keys on the left side of the keyboard; there may be a second identical key on the right side as well
I'll be here in case you will need any additional help.
what is the I button?
It is the button on your Keyboard
I pressed the win logo button and the capital i key and it made the screen very large, how do i return to the size it was?
You should get screen like this:
ok, back to the size it was. so i should press the win logo and then the key that's at the far right on the row of keys that starts with q?
Is everything clear with the provided instruction?
yes, i've done all that, but the gray bar for scrolling from left to right has not returned.
You did this too?
You can press Windows + I to open Windows Settings, and click Personalization.
Then click Taskbar in the left pane to open Taskbar settings window.
Then you can check if Automatically hide the taskbar in desktop mode is Off or On, and make sure it is in Off status
yes, did all that
Still no help, *****?
not so far - i need the gray bar for scrolling from kleft to right to work on documents
Please, click on the “Show/Hide Toolbar” icon in the top left corner of the screen now the show/hide toolbar is not there. how do i get it back?
***** could please sent me a picture of what you see on your screen?
I can't seem to be able to do that. across the top is a bar witj Mail, then Chat/howly, then new tab ... below that is a the bar with arrows pointinge left and right plus search bar an google logo, etc to the the three vertical dots ... below that is a bar showing my bookmarks
The simplest way to take a screenshot in Windows 10 is to use the Print Screen button. You'll find it on the upper-right side of most keyboards (or next to the Space Bar on some). Tap PrtSc once to copy an image of your entire screen to the clipboard. You can then hit Ctrl + V to paste it into the chat.

is that right?
Yes!
Thank you for the screenshot.
You were talking about this thing, *****?
when I click on the thing in the middle of that it just opens a screen showing a bunch of previously opened screens
Ok, ***** what is missing from your taskbar that you want to return?
show/hide taskbar and the cvarious icons for working with documents
Ok, can you tell me where this feature missing, Windows or Google Chrome?
the bar showing icons to work with documents is there when I open a document. i don't find the show/hide taskbar icon anywhere
i mean the show.huide toolbar
show/hide toolbar
You can hide the taskbar both in desktop mode and tablet mode. Press and hold or right-click any empty space on the taskbar, select Taskbar settings, select Taskbar behaviors, and select Automatically hide the taskbar.
Is everything clear with the provided instruction?
I selected Taskbar settings, but do not find Taskbar behaviors - still need to know how to display the show/hide toolbar icon on the upper left of where?
To see hidden icons
Select the Show hidden icons arrow next to the notification area.
