taskbar drag/drop

[Guest]

Hi all
Am attempting to drag and drop a desktop icon into the taskbar but am
getting the circle/slash symbol instead. Appreciate help on how to do this
the correct way. Many thanks.

Right click the Taskbar, then choose "Unlock Taskbar" from the menu. You
should now be able to drag the shortcut to a spot somewhere near the "Start"
button.

Hi Franktee,

Right click the taskbar, if "lock the taskbar" is checked, uncheck it by
clicking on it.

You have to drag it onto a toolbar (like the quick launch area) or the
actual start menu button.
