1. Perform a proper shutdown of the thin client by closing all files and ending your session, and then press the power button to turn off the thin client. 2. Unplug the power cord and power adapter, remove all of the cables from the rear of the thin client, and then detach any support feet.
To do this, you would normally have to right-click on your taskbar, but since that is missing, we have to go through the Control Panel and click on Taskbar and Navigation. That will open up the taskbar properties dialog box where you will want to go ahead and uncheck the Auto-hide the taskbar box. Just in case, you should also check to make sure the taskbar is located at the bottom of the screen.
