After clicking the show application button on the taskbar, there is no way to return back to the home screen again. There is an extra black box available in the right corner. I am able to open the application but not use them. On opening any of my favorite applications from the taskbar that application freezes and a red circle with white cross appear to kill this program. No even the close, or minimize commands word expect that big cross on the left top. This is sometimes sorted by restarting but sometimes even that doesn't help. Please help me sort this issue. Its urgent.
