Locking the Taskbar

[Mike]

I used to be able to right click the task bar in windows xp home edition and
it would let me lock the task bar. It will no longer let me do this. Any
one now why? Please?

Can you not get the right click dialog to come up, or does it come up but
lock the taskbar isn't an option?

Hi Mike,

Restore Taskbar to Default Functionality (Line 164)
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Note: Do not reboot or logoff. Once the edit is merged, right click the
Notification Area/Task Manager/Processes. Highlight Explorer.exe, End
Process.

Leave the Task Manager open. Once the process has ended, choose File/New
Task and type in: Explorer.exe.
