If you haven't discovered it already, you should look at this:

The Taskbar and Start Menu changes in Windows (R) 7 (tm)
[Microsoft Corporation - patents enforceable/pending]
are overwhelmingly innovative, useful new features. You could almost
say they were "my idea" [quoted phrasing used with expressed
permission of Microsoft Corp.].

(Or a number of people's "idea(s)".)

Add the Quick Launch Bar to the Taskbar in Windows 7

It doesn't need to be called Quick Launch and it can be located anywhere.
1. Create an empty folder anywhere you want. I created "D:\Toolbar" (no
imagination).
2. Right click on Taskbar, uncheck "Lock the taskbar," and select
"Toolbars."
3. Select "New toolbar" and navigate to your new folder.

That's it. Drag items you want to add onto the toolbar or add them as
shortcuts to the folder.

Life is short. Eat dessert first.


But this one already has the "Show Desktop" shortcut in it. For somebody
who doesn't know how to enable the shortcut in another Toolbar, this is
definitely the easy way to go.

Repeat that paragraph often enough and you'll might begin to believe it. Win
7 is a triumph of design over function.

The only useful thing I've found with the new taskbar is the ability to
close various windows of my choice when hovering over a tab. And the only
reason that is useful is because I have my taskbar at the top of the screen,
and often the control button to close the window ("X") is hidden beneath it.

And as for the Start Menu, well, I installed Classic Windows Start menu as
soon as I found it!

You "could" say they were "your idea" but then you would be lying! Oops.

Sir, I didn't say they were my idea. Please refrain from disrupting
the newsgroup.

Trolling the off-topic trolls is one thing, but trolling a Windows 7
enthusiast is out of bounds.
