Hello, does anybody knows where Windows store the details of Windows toolbars
such as the QuickLaunch toolbar and custom toolbars added to the task bar?

Settings configuration like the position of the toolbars, position of the
icons etc.

I had tried looking at several locations including the registry but could
not seemed to find it.

Thanks.
 
mine is at C:\Profiles\admin\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Quick Launch

so probably yours is at "%userprofile%\Application
Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch"

eg. C:\Documents & Settings\xyz\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Quick Launch
 
He is asking to set the positions. I think that can only be done in
registry [that I don't know]. And to access the folder where the items are
stored, Simply :
Way 1. Right click empty space in quick launch tool bar and choose "Open
folder"
Way 2. Right click the double heeded arrow twice and choose "Open folder"

Yes I am talking about the positions and things like the order of the
toolbars etc. I think it is in the registry as well but I simply cannot find
it.

Any ideas?

They are stored in binary format under this key:

[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Desktop]

in the values:

'TaskbarWinXP' -- layout of the taskbar and any added toolbars.

'Toolbars' -- any additional toolbars that are free-floating or attached to a screen edge other than
the taskbar.
