How to display the Quick Launch Bar

Windows XP loads several programs in the Quick Launch, including Show Desktop. One click on Show Desktop minimizes all the programs on your desktop. Another click restores them just as you'd left them.

To display Quick Launch on the taskbar

1. If the Quick Launch bar is not displayed (by default in Windows XP Quick Launch is not displayed), right-click an empty area on the taskbar and click Properties.
2. On the Taskbar tab, under Taskbar appearance, select the Show Quick Launch check box and click OK.

Tip: The Quick Launch bar makes it easy to access frequently used programs like an Internet Explorer window, Google Chrome, MS word, and etc.,.
