Quick launch (QL) toolbar - reset position?

[Blithe]

Sometimes my QL toolbar relocates from the bottom of the desktop to the
right side. The online 'help' says to click on the divider line & drag it
back. That worked the last time. Nothing works this time.

There has to be a way to reset the default. Please advise how to end this
frustration.

Is the QL toolbar docked in the Taskbar? (r-click on and unlock the
taskbar first). If floating free, are you using soom third party desktop
manager that may be interferring?

OK, thanks - I confused the issue by referring to the QL toolbar that was
indeed 'docked' in the task bar.

I now refer to the taskbar proper. It's vertical on the right of the
desktop. A right click simply gives me the menu (Toolbars/Adjust date time
etc) but clicking on an empty spot & trying to drag it down to the bottom of
the desktop succeeds only to expand it to the left or retract it back to the
right. It will not swivel or drag down.

Oops! I just got it to relocate to the top of the desktop. I did that by
clicking on a divider to get the opposing down arrows of the mouse cusor to
display (I was only getting the opposing side to side arrows to display
previously).

But damn it! I'm having the same problem. It will not relocate to the
bottom. What am I doing wrong? The mouse action is seemingly random,
haphazard, uncontrolled.

Sorry, forgot this is the Win2000 group and the lock taskbar. Anyway you
may find an "unused area" on the Taskbar, (not occupied by the QL area)
and left click and drag it down and toward center bottom.

Forgot to say, you must "walk" it around the screen. If at top, go to
side first, then bottom.

Thanks - but nothing works & I get no hits surfing for a solution.

An 'annoyance' I'll have to live with until it rights itself? Most likely.

It can be a bit confusing at first locating the "correct" location to
click on when you want to drag it back. Keep trying and you will find
the correct spot.
