Hi,
Until I inadvertantly lost my Media player and had to re-install it yesterday,
I did have a small bar like icon on my taskbar where I could clik on play,
stop, volume etc. Having re-installed version 10, I am missing the taskbar
thingy. I have tried feeding the question into Google in various ways but
nothing specifically mentions what I'm after. The icon used to appear on the
right hand side of the taskbar....
Can someone please help me get it back? I use the player at work and the icon
bar is really useful.
Thanks very much

The mini-player is a toolbar.

Right-click on the taskbar and choose Toolbars > Windows Media Player.

Hi Mike,
you're a doll!! Thank you so much! You have no idea where I've been net wise
trying to find out how to get that thingy back, it makes my life so much
easier. The things I've learned tho', on my journey lol. I've certainly
learned not to be so scared of the pc, that's for sure. Fiddle with anything
now, I do, figuratively speaking of course.
Thanks again, much appreciated.
Lia
