Hi,

we have ca. 800 PCs in our firm and I want to build a script which
makes a folder on those PCs an then it should add the folder to the
taskbar as a personal toolbar.

I can add the folder manually. But I dont know where the definition
for the taskbar is stored. Is it a registrykey (I havent found one) or
is there an ini File ...???

Can anyone help me? I need the location for the configuration of the
taskbar.

Thanks,
Christian!

Insert the folder into:

C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Application
Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

or

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

I'm not sure which folder/s you would use.

I don't want the Folder in Quickstart Menu. I would like to use the
folder as a Toolbar. When you do a right-click on your Taskbar and
choose Toolbar-> New Toolbar, you can choose a folder which acts like
a toolbar. And i want to automate these steps. Maybe with an API Call
or something else. The Toolbar Definition itself is in the Registry
Key [KEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion
\Explorer\Streams\Desktop] : TaskbarWinXP, but these are binary
Informations. And I don't know if i can distribute my settings to all
other PCs.
