Windows key in the lower left. Does it pull up the program list?
Thank you for that fast reply. I checked this thread before going out the door. Yes, I hadn't thought of that magic Windows button. I tried it and while perusing the list to guess what to try with the list that popped up, I found the problem. Now all I have to remember is how to solve it.
I have the taskbar as normally hidden, and it had relocated itself to the right edge of the screen, and "hidden" until I nudged the cursor up there. Got to remember how to move it back, now.
Thanks for the tip, and thanks to everyone else who responded that I have not read yet.
Going to do that now, but the problem is pretty much solved.
Freepers are great!
