Not everyone want to take up the space on the task bar with the search box. Thankfully, there is a way for those that no longer want it, to disable the search bar and return to a more minimalist taskbar. The process is simple, and the best part is that the search function still works.
To disable the search bar, right-click on the taskbar, hover your mouse over the “Search” in the context menu, and then click “Hidden”. Bingo, this hides the search bar from the taskbar.

Copy and paste your code from Visual Studio / Eclipse inside this embedded word page

Leaders are not infallible, they are men and women who choose to be the support for a team of dedicated individuals to achieve their goals. Teaching, Coaching and guiding the team to great height’s.
Leaders, must be aware of any risks that they are taking and reconstruct the scenario in their own heads to be able to use any setbacks or challenges as opportunities to grow. This is the shift that can transform their emotions and outcome experience to overcome pre-performance issues by viewing them as a positive or as an exciting challenge to learn rather than a failure. They have to consider that there is no failure as long as they use any experience to learn and continue to grow, to keep trying again in their quest to achieve not only their personal goals, but also their companies goals. Leaders have to be prepared to take chances and to accept any setbacks based on their choices. It is their responsibility, no matter who dropped the ball. A leader is the end of the line as far as responsibility goes.
To reset the video driver on Windows 10, you can use the keyboard shortcut Win + Ctrl + Shift + B.
This will cause the screen to flicker for a few seconds or go black for a second, and then everything will return to normal.
This method is safe and won’t affect running apps and opened documents. If the driver is misbehaving a lot, chances are that it has gone corrupt. Another way to restart the driver is by disabling and re-enabling the Display adapter from Device Manager. It is important to check if the Windows Key is not disabled as it can accidentally shift the focus.

This action will reset your graphics card driver and may clear up any display issues you were having.
If nothing else works, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling the graphics driver. Uninstalling the driver will remove it from your system completely, which should resolve any possible glitches or compatibility issues that might have been causing the display problems.

Page breaks tell Word where to start a new page. A manual page break might be making an unwanted blank page in your document.
In the middle of a document, deleting section breaks can cause formatting problems. In these cases, try changing the section break to one that doesn’t generate a new page. Here’s how:
Odd, Even, and Next cause blank pages
Next Page, Odd Page, and Even Page section breaks may create a blank page in your document. If the blank page occurs at the end of your document and you have a section break there, place your cursor directly before the section break and press Delete.
Tip: To more easily find section breaks, try switching to Draft on the View tab.

Word includes a non-deleteable end-paragraph that sometimes gets pushed out to a new, blank page at the end of a document. The way to delete the page is to make the end-paragraph fit onto the preceding page. The most sure-fire way is to make the end-paragraph very small (1 point):
If that paragraph still doesn’t fit on the preceding page, you can make the bottom margin smaller (Layout tab > Margins > Custom Margins, and set the bottom margin to something small, like 0.3 inches).
Tip: If the paragraph mark has a square bullet next to it, the paragraph might have the Page break before option turned on. To turn it off, right-select the empty paragraph, select Paragraph Settings (Home tab), and on the Lines and Page Breaks tab of the dialog box, uncheck Page break before.
