My Windows Flip 3D navigation taskbar icons are gone

[Guest]

Can anyone help me with getting them back into the taskbar? I have right
cliced on the taskbar and went through all the options to no avail.

Its also in the start menu I believe.. take a look and if you find it,
right click on the icon and select "add to quicklaunch"

If you right click the Taskbar and select Toolbars and then click on the
Quick Launch item, does this bring them back?

Hi Ronnie,

Quicklaunch is already checked, I have 3 icons in my Quicklaunch taskbar for
other programs not 3D navigator though.

Hey Kirk,

I looked in the start menu and couldnt find it, what folder would it be
under, I looked in every one and couldnt find it, is it named "3D navigation"?

Hello, I zipped the icon and attached it to this message..

you can theoretically unzip it and place it on your quicklaunch bar

I attached it because its only a shortcut.... so its not a big file

OR I found out that the code that makes it a flip3d switcher is the
following

If you copy that as it is into a text file, then rename the text file to
Window Switcher.lnk

It should work!

Please tell me if this helps

Here's an idea. Create a new account, log in to it, open the Run command
(Win+R) > type C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Quick Launch

Copy the Switch between windows icon to the root of your c:\ drive

Log back into your account open the Run command (Win+R) > type
C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Go to root of your C:\ and copy the Switch between windows icon and paste it
in the Quick Launch folder.

Click Start, type the following and press Enter:

%systemdrive%\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Right-click the Switch between windows shortcut and choose Copy (Keyboard shortcut: CTRL+C)

Click Start, type the following and press Enter:
%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Right-click an empty area in the folder, and choose Paste (Keyboard shortcut: CTRL+V)

You will find a copy of the file in the following location. It's called
Switch Between Windows.

C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Right click the file and select Copy, go to the Desktop and right click,
select Paste. Drag the icon onto the Quick Launch Toolbar.
