• Pin a shortcut to the taskbar

  I just installed Windows 7 7100 on SBS2003 R2 32 bit workstation.  Everything seems simple with two exceptions...

  1. I am trying to pin a shortcut to the taskbar, but when I I drag it to the task bar there is a red circle with a bar diagonally and it won't PIN.  When the application is running and I click right to "pin to taskbar" the only options I have are to "close the window.

  2. is there a way to remove, hide or remove a program running in the taskbar (Windows Messenger for example)?

  Thank you very much.

  My understanding from what I've read of Microsoft... shortcuts, folders and disks can be pinned. The icon must be associated with an exe file. You may not remove or hide a program running in the taskbar either. Jonathan Matthis aka "7test" on MSN QnA

• How to drag a shortcut from the taskbar in Windows 7?

  I have already in XP to create a shortcut for a network on the desktop drive and then create an icon with a program icon for the associated drawing letter that drive (e.g., P for projects), F for finance, etc. and to associate this icon with the shortcut.  Then I could drag and drop this shortcut right in the task bar and voila - a big letter indicating the network drive I could then single click on my desired disc.  It's simple, fast and convenient.  Now, in Windows 7, I can't and drag that shortcut on the taskbar.  Anyone know of a workaround?

• Shortcuts to the taskbar, buttons, text, same .jpg files in the photo viewer shrank mysteriously horizontally... cannot be resolved (Windows 7)

  Hello

  To describe the problem I want to join two screenshots.

  The shortcuts at the bottom used to extend all the way to the right, to the system tray.  The taskbar buttons are tighter, and the text inside is smaller.  The date and time are narrower.  Here's how a screen shot I took in SWTOR looks:

  It is much closer, and all of the text on the screen is smaller.

  Here is what I tried:

  -Unfortunately I don't have a system restore point, so it wasn't an option.

  -Manipulate anything in the taskbar properties did nothing.  I never changed anything.

  -Change the screen resolution was not the answer.

  -Change the size from 100% to 125% don't give me the results I was looking for.  I want this to 100% and never changed.

  -Change the DPI setting has absolutely nothing.

  -Go to the police in the Panel--> font--> font settings, then clicking on "Restore default settings", made the button go gray but did nothing.

  -Go to personalization and selecting the theme of Windows 7 by default only changed color.  Work with advanced appearance settings was not helpful, because there is no option to select a font by default to size everything.  The option 'Office' here does not even allows you to change the font/size.

  -Unchecking and then re - click on my own personal theme in personalization has not changed anything.

  There is more, but this is basically what happened right out of the blue and for the life of me, I can't find a way to change it to the way it was.  It affects same SWTOR that when I log in, all the text in the chat window is smaller.  I'm just looking to Windows by default.  I found a post that told me to download "Set_Tahoma_Default_Font.reg" and then merge - a box of type BACK skipped upward, but nothing happened.  I restarted my PC after almost every change I made.

  Sorry for the novel.  Any help appreciated.

• Adding shortcuts in the atmosphere of the IPad

  I already have an answer to that question appears resolved because I didn't know that I had to push to be 'resolved' or 'useful' which I felt neither one applied when I replied to the response of the user AJ397. But by default chooses resolved FOR you even if it was not resolved. Thus the reason asking him again.

  There is an option in the settings general keyboard that says ' enable shortcuts "I activate. But the only available shortcut is the shortcut of Apple factory. This allows a period at the end of a sentence if the space bar double hit. What is the point of shortcut if there is only one to choose? My IPad Air has 32 GB of memory, storage capacity 26.5 and I'm not sure of the speed of the processor. User AJ397 said that I had to go where I said already, I went and tap shortcuts. There was a gray over a symbol in the corner to tap to add a shortcut. But there is no option for tap. I could only drag the shortcut to on or off. I found in "text replacements" you can type in some combinations of letters that will extend to words or phrases. But it was all I could find. Which is what I wrote in my reply. In fact, you can add shortcuts to IPad-like? 32 GB memory, ability to 25.6,

  An iPad is a different animal from a computer. I'm not familiar wath the ctr + z and the other shortcuts mean in your other thread. What kind of action do you want?

• Firefox creates a Documents shortcut in the taskbar when I download files

  Firefox can create a new shortcut of 'Documents' in my taskbar every time I have to download a file.
  I remove it, and then it does it again. How to stop?

  This has happened

  A few times a week

  == A month or two it is

  OK, that has helped to solve. Temporarily, I changed the setting to "back up files on" and changed the folder ' save files to "to:

  Documents C:\Users\My

  Then I reset the downloads to 'Always ask me where to save files.'

  Not sure why it creates a new folder for an option greyed out, but at least it no longer occurs.

  Thank you!

• Adding shortcuts to the installer lead to out of memory crash

  I have a collection of about 20 executables I want to consolidate to a single installer. Create destinations, by selecting the source files etc is very simple, nothing special. I wanted to add shortcuts for simple applications, but here the installer / labview is short-term memory permanently. I started the project and Installer freshly, so nothing to comment on. I use LV2012, 32-bit. Here are the steps I did:

  (1) adding Destinations and source files

  

  (2) select "positive" in the tab shortcuts, memory directly increases regularly.

  

  10:03 seconds, it already is out of memory.

  

  (4) not enough memory, unspecified error occurred at IB_UI_Page_Shortcuts.vi and CDK_Utility_Prune_Unused_Destinations.vi

  

  Are there patches or known workaround solutions for this problem? I'm looking for something impossible?

  I tried several times, but who realized at some point that it consumes too much memory when opening the popup generator to a finite amount of files.

  When I had six executables and so on 100 files in the dialog program installation, already happen to over 1.1 GB of memory. By adding the seventh executable and then by creating the seventh shortcut, it would amount to more than 3 GB and LV would break.

  I finally solved by manually editing the file .lvproj with Notepad, copy and paste the shortcut properties and then build everything. It worked for me, but is far from practical.

  See below that the shortcut list is not complete, in this installer, it should install twenty executables and shortcuts. So there's something fishy about this tab shortcuts...

  

• When I click on my Office key shortcut in the taskbar it will bring up out of my office. How can I fix?

  I right click (in the quick launch area) and delete it, the creation of a new sequel to this article:

• PIN desktop to the taskbar shortcuts

  Here's my problem. Does anyone know how to pin shortcuts, like my computer, the taskbar on a Tablet Acer W500. I have unlock the taskbar, the way I always did on my desktop and laptop computers and tried to drag the shortcut, then drop it in the taskbar. But on the Acer Tablet, I can't drop the shortcut on the taskbar.

  It is confusing because I found a way to install Works 9 on the Tablet and when I dragged and dropped the Works 9 icon on the taskbar, it worked. But when I try to drag and drop icons such as my computer and control panel they won't PIN to the taskbar.

  So does anyone know how to get there. Thank you
