  • How can I put icons on the bar at the bottom?

    I would put icons, such as my e-mail access, MS Word, etc. on the left lower part of the bar (start bar?).  Please tell me how to do this.  Thank you

    This is the Quick Launch toolbar. The part of the taskbar Windows between the Start key and the program tabs kept to a minimum.

    If you do not have a desktop icon for a program you want, find it in all programs and make a right click | Send to | Desktop (create shortcut) and then just drag the desktop icon in the toolbar.

  • How to get an icon on the Desktop Web. I have windows 7 and 8 on different computers.

    I asked this question repeatedly in stores and friends and tells me that it is possible by clicking on the web address, however, it would seem that Firefox does not happen because I was only able to do so far. I used to be able to do it on Xp but now find it impossible. I use this facility to allow me to access a web page immediately instead of having to go through the search or a bookmark. I'm having the same problem with windows 8 on a different machine.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    There are several way to do.

    • 1 hold down the left mouse on the icon in the address bar, and then move the icon on your desktop and let go.
    • 2 deskCut {web link}
      This extension adds creation of shortcut on the desktop in the menu popup-Windows, Linux and Mac.

    Don't know if it's something I've done or what, but all of a sudden the desktop on my laptop Dell icons are little greyed out - they are still useable but difficult to read.

    At the same time, the clock in the taskbar is the same way - white letters on a gray background - very difficult to read.

    Can anyone help?  I'm not very savvy computer so need to very simple instructions.

    I currently have Windows 8 and am installing 8.1

    If the icon won't delete in the normal way, try the following.
