Icon size in Quicklaunch and Systray

G

Gordon

A colleague of mine is running XP Home SP2. After the install of IE7
(relevant? Not sure.....) the icons in Quick launch and the Systray have
changed to MINUTE size. I can change the size of icons in Quicklaunch to
large, when they are larger than default, but I can't find any way of
re-sizing the systray icons. Is there a registry key perhaps? Is there a way
to revert to the default icon size in Quicklaunch and Systray?

Thanks

If IE7 is uninstalled through Add/Remove programs what happens?

Dunno - haven't tried that yet as he's also on BT Yahoo which installs it's
own version of IE7 (yes I know......)

1. Right-click an empty area of your desktop, and then click Properties.
2. Click the Appearance tab, and then click Advanced.
3. In the Item list, select "Caption Buttons"
4. In the Size box, increase the size that you want.
5. Click OK twice to save your settings.

I have it set to 23, but don't know what the system default size is. Will check it if you want.

thanks very much! That's pretty well hidden, isn't it?
