What to do if the toolbar in MS Word has disappeared. The Quick Launch panel has disappeared, what should I do? Quick Access Toolbar not working

My panel is missing quick launch, along with all the icons, how to restore it now and whether it is possible to place more than three icons there. I saw it at our system administrator There are ten program shortcuts on the quick launch panel, when asked how to do this, the spell must be said. But seriously?

The quick launch bar is missing

You know Tatyana, it also disappeared somewhere for me, I really don’t use it, it’s probably the virus that steals it from everyone, let’s try to figure it out together.

Right-click on the taskbar, then the toolbar, check the Quick launch box and our missing quick launch bar appears where it should be.

I don’t know about you, but I didn’t get anything, let’s remember the settings of old XP, mastering seven and eight is good, but we shouldn’t forget old friends either. Right-click again on the taskbar and select properties,

Look in the Taskbar tab, there should be a checkbox Show Quick Launch Toolbar, if it is not there, then check it.

If in this case the Quick Launch panel does not appear, then the icons were deleted manually, we try to reboot and drag the icons we need with the mouse to the lower left corner of the taskbar, three program icons should remain in the Quick Launch panel.

It rarely happens, but the two methods described above do not help, then read on, and at the same time consider the question: How to place on the quick panel Windows startup XP is the number of shortcuts we need without a spell? After all, the allotted space is very small and instead of the icons we need, two arrows pointing to the right are displayed, which reveal the list of programs that do not fit into the quick launch panel.

Right-click on the taskbar and uncheck the Pin taskbar option.

as you can see, a delimiter immediately appears, point the mouse at it and it takes the form of a double arrow,

Click on it with the left mouse and without releasing it, move it to the right as much as necessary, release the mouse and pin the taskbar. That's all, now we drag the shortcuts we need into the launcher with the mouse,

let there be even ten of them. In this case, the Quick Launch panel will definitely appear.

If you cannot return the Minimize all windows icon, open Notepad and write the text and save it with the extension. scf, then drag it with the mouse into the quick launch panel.

In a programme Microsoft Word toolbar disappeared? What to do and how to get access to all those tools without which working with documents is simply impossible? The main thing is not to panic, just as it disappeared, it will return, especially since finding this loss is quite easy.

As they say, everything that isn't done is for the best, so thanks to the mysterious disappearance of the Quick Access Toolbar, you can learn not only how to get it back, but also how to customize the elements that appear on it. So let's get started.

If you are using Word 2012 or higher, you just need to click one button to return the toolbar. It is located in the upper right part of the program window and looks like an upward arrow located in a rectangle.

You press this button once, the disappeared toolbar returns, press it again - it disappears again. By the way, sometimes you really need to hide it, for example, when you need to concentrate entirely on the content of the document, and so that nothing unnecessary distracts.

This button has three display modes; you can select the appropriate one just by clicking on it:

  • Automatically hide the feed;
  • Show tabs only;
  • Show tabs and commands.

The name of each of these display modes speaks for itself. Choose the one that will be most convenient for you while working.

If you are using MS Word 2003 - 2010, to enable the toolbar you must perform the following manipulations.

1. Open the View tab menu and select Toolbars.

2. Check the boxes next to the items that you need to work.

3. Now they will all appear on the Quick Access Toolbar as separate tabs and/or tool groups.

Enable individual toolbar items

It also happens that not the entire toolbar “disappears” (is hidden, as we have already figured out), but its individual elements. Or, for example, the user simply cannot find some tool, or even an entire tab. In this case, you need to enable (configure) the display of these very tabs on the quick access panel. This can be done in the "Options" section.

1. Open the "File" tab on the Quick Access Toolbar and go to the "Options" section.

Note: B earlier versions Word has a "MS Office" button instead of the "File" button.

2. In the window that appears, go to the “Customize Ribbon” section.

3. In the “Main Tabs” window, check the boxes next to the tabs that you need.

Tip: By clicking on the plus sign next to the tab name, you will see lists of groups of tools that these tabs contain. By expanding the “pluses” of these items, you will see a list of tools presented in the groups.

4. Now go to the Quick Access Toolbar section.

5. In the “Select commands from” section, select “All commands”.

6. Go through the list below, having found the required tool there, click on it and click the “Add” button located between the windows.

7. Repeat the same step for all other tools that you want to add to the Quick Access Toolbar.

Note: You can also remove unnecessary tools by clicking the "Delete" button, and sort their order using the arrows located to the right of the second window.

Tip: In the Customize Quick Access Toolbar section located above the second window, you can choose whether the changes you make will apply to all documents or just the current one.

8. To close the Options window and save your changes, click OK.

Now the quick access panel (toolbar) will display only the tabs you need, groups of tools and, in fact, the tools themselves. By setting this panel correctly, you can significantly optimize work time, thereby increasing your productivity.
