Orange Homescreen problem

[Guest AaronW]

How do I get rid of the annoying Orange icons down the left hand side? I could with this my C600 by putting on the Microsoft Default Home Screen.

I goto Start > Settings> Today> Select Windows > click on the Items tab > Then I check on the Items but they don't appear.

Any ideas how I can get rid of this Orange one and put the Microsoft one on?

Have you DEselected the orange item - if it is selected it overrides all others

You can tick the other items till the cows come home, but unless you UNtick the Orange one at the bottom of the items list, they will never be displayed.

HTH, Mark.

It worked.

Anyone know what the Today Timeout checkbox does? It is defaulted @ 4 hours.
