Taskbar was first introduced with Windows
95. Since then, it has been found in every version of Windows OS. It is a
small rectangular bar located at the bottom of the screen. What are its
functions? Well, the Taskbar allows a user to locate and
launch programs through the Start button, check if any program is currently
open or running, display the time or date, view items running in the background
through the systray and do a lot more.
What’s best? You can set your taskbar the way you
prefer. For instance, you can set one entire row at the top to be
reserved for the Quick Launch Icons, and the bottom row for the Taskbar
Buttons.
Reserve
an Entire Taskbar Row for Taskbar
Buttons in Windows
To do so, un-check Lock Taskbar
option first by clicking in empty area of taskbar after a right-click.
Then,
drag the Taskbar up, by the border, so that it doubles in size. The position
your mouse cursor should be on the upper half of the dotted vertical Quick
Lunch Border
The
cursor will now change to the ‘resize arrow’. Now, click and hold down the
mouse button to drag it to the area below the Quick Launch.
You may find this useful if you have a habit of
keeping a lot of windows open and you need an entire row dedicated to the
buttons. This works in Windows 7, Windows Vista, as well as Windows XP.
