    This has been going on for a few months now, but I have a laptop, and for some reason the battery meter mysteriously disappears on my taskbar. (no it's not hidden, theres actually a gap where it should be) And when I right click the taskbar, click properties, go to Notification Area and System Icons, it has Clock, Volume, and Network checked, but Power is not checked and it's faded out so I can't even check it. Usually I have to restore my computer to a month before but it's really annoying to keep doing this, and it's not always the power that disappears, the "Network" icon would do the same from time to time. ;_;

    Suggestions?

    Bar is locked, (because i hate when it hides itself) and I don't have much stuff on it just the basics, clock, volume, network, (what was once the battery spot), and my security suite
