    Assume you mean the Taskbar. You may have inadvertently hidden it by dragging it right to the bottom of the screen.

    When you move your mouse to the base of the screen does the cursor change to a vertical line with an arrowhead at each end? If so hold down the left mouse button and drag the taskbar back up. If this succeeds in restoring the taskbar right click on a blank area of it and select 'Lock the Taskbar'.

    No already tried the cursor stays as an arrow. Also when I press the start key on the keyboard nothing happens.
