How can I pin a program (like Facebook) to the taskbar in Windows XP?

Hi JackieA_669,

It is not possible to pin a website to the taskbar in Windows XP computer.

However, this feature is available in Windows Vista & Windows 7.

For more information, refer to this link: Pin a website to your taskbar

You upgrade the computer to Windows 7, which has improved performance & stability. However, first run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, which helps find potential compatibility issues with the hardware of your computer, devices, or programs that might affect installing Windows 7.

For more information, follow this link: Windows XP to Windows 7 upgrade

Hope the helps of information.
Please post back and we do know.

    Note

    If SFC could not fix something, then run the new command to see if it can be able to next time. Sometimes, it can take by running the sfc/scannow command 3 times restart the PC after each time completely fix everything what he is capable of.

    If this isn't the case, then run Dism/online/Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth to repair any corruption component store, restart the PC later and try the sfc/scannow command.

    If still no, then try using ONE OPTION above to run the command sfc/scannow at the start

    If still no, then you could do a Refresh of Windows 8, or run a System Restore using a restore point dated before the wrong file occurred to fix. You may need to repeat doing a restore of the system until you find a restore point that is older that may work.

    If not yet, then you can use the steps in the TIP box in the section THREE OPTION to manually replace the files SFC could not fix.

    Refresh your PC goes like this:

    • The PC starts in Windows RE (Recovery Eenvironment).
    • Windows RE scans the hard drive for your data, settings, and applications and puts them aside (on the same drive).
    • Windows RE installs a new copy of Windows.
    • Windows RE restores the data, settings, and applications, which it set aside in the newly installed copy of Windows.
    • The PC reboots into the newly installed copy of Windows.

    "When you reboot your PC, the drive will be completely reset and all your applications and your files will be removed it." Windows 8 will be reinstalled, and you need to change any settings, and then reinstall all the apps you want to come back after the reset. If you know if all the files you don't want to lose, then you must back up these files before you start resetting.

    See you soon.

  • I can't pin shortcuts to Documents, images, and the taskbar Control Panel. They go only in Windows Explorer?

    Clear since back with Win 98, I used the Quick Launch bar downstairs to give me quick access to my most used programs while keeping open the windows that I use, so I was happy to Win 7 as supposed that this would finally make a correctly recognized feature.  However, I find only programs can actually be pinned it.  I don't want these three things hiding inside Windows Explorer, what makes 2 clicks result instead of 1.  Am I missing something simple (which is possible)!  I can get the shortcuts on the desktop is there a way to then pin the taskbar shortcuts instead?

    Hi skyreburn,

    This is how the Windows 7 pin feature. Personally, I would like an option that allows you to pin folders separated rather than adding it under the Solution Explorer icon. You can accomplish what you want with a hack (sort of), pinning an executable, and by changing the way target the question later. For more information, see this article.

    Hello

    Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista

    Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

    they do it for a nominal cost of $

    ____________________________________________________________

    also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

    you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

    Ask them of the exact key sequence

    __________________________________________________________

    or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

    Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

    they contain all versions of vista

    I am a newbie to LabVIEW OOP, during the process of debugging the project I tend to use in step function to test & see Subvi & this will lead to open several sub forums vi on the taskbar

    That's fine if the number of under vi is limited & fits into the main taskbar, but most of the time that it goes beyond the bar of main task and every time when I want to pass among other programs, I then have to use arrow up/down & it's really annoying and time consuming.

    is there a better way to manage/hide these proceedings vi, just a vi icon display with a sub list on the taskbar?

    Right-click on the taskbar, select Properties. Search the taskbar buttons, it is probably set to "never combine".

    Whenever WLM works, it opens in the mode full screen.  It is so annoying to have to resize each time.

    Any window that you want to resize all the time must be the last closed window.
     
    Take the corners of the window and drag it to the desired size. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.
    Also, right-click on the icon of shortcut of WLMail | Properties and check the field run is set to normal window.
