Sir
It does not seem to work. This is the exported key values :
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]

Vivek:
1. Go to the registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
2. Open the value TaskbarSizeMove
Set this value to 0 to lock the taskbar. If you want to unlock the
taskbar, set this value back to 1.

Hmmm... Have you tried restarting the explorer process or rebooting the
machine after changing the value?
