Help. My Quick Launch toolbar disappears in Windows XP.
Is there a freeware program to return the Microsoft Windows Quicklaunch to
the desired state in the Windows taskbar?
Whenever my WinXP SP3 pc abnormally shuts down, I have to reset the WinXP
quicklaunch in the toolbar because the windows quicklaunch disappears. (Of
course, you'll say "don't abnormally shut down" but the fact remains, that
after a forced reboot, the quick launch is more often than not, missing.)
Each time, I have to manually run the following six (6) steps:
0. Right click in the windows taskbar to uncheck "Lock the taskbar"
1. Right click in the windows task bar to check "Toolbars -> Quick Launch"
2. Left click and hold and then move the border between the quick launch
and the running programs icons away, so as to give enough right click room
in the quick launch bar for the next step
3. Once you have enough room in the windows quicklaunch bar, right click in
the newly created empty space in the quick launch bar and select "View ->
Small icons"
4. Manually move the border between the Microsoft Windows XP quicklaunch
and the running programs' icons back up to the end of the now small
quicklaunch icons
5. Right click in the empty space created in the taskbar and select "Lock
the taskbar".
Instead of manually running these six (6) steps each time Windows loses the
quicklaunch bar, wouldn't it be easier if there were freeware existing that
accomplishes the task.
Do you know if there is any Windows freeware to restore the quicklaunch
properly after it's lost? (Why does the windows quicklaunch disappear
anyway?)
