Taskbar Resizes automatically

I have my XP(home) taskbar on the left side of my screen
instead of at the bottom.
Eveytime I reboot the pc, the taskbar gets smaller.
Locking the taskbar to its desirable width does not help;
the taskbar will still re-appear on the left at a smaller
size.
Anyone knows a fix for this ?

Thansk,
J

Lucky you. And no.

Hello Jeff,

I suggest you visit MS-MVP Kelly's website at

Note the instructions at the top of the page,
then scroll down to line 164,
(Restore Taskbar to Default Functionality)

Right-click the hyperlink, then click | Save Target As |
to download the file, "xp_taskbar_desktop_fixall.vbs",
then double-click and follow the prompts.

You might also like to do some reading on "Taskbar"

You might also need to download the file,
"savesettings.reg" from
Line 54, (Save settings on exit) at
