What is Quick Launch?
Quick Launch is an additional tool bar that you can display next to the “Start” button to which you can add shortcuts for frequently used programs and which allows the user to easily access your desktop without minimizing the programs you’re using. To add Quick Launch: Right click the task bar, click Properties, On the Taskbar tab, select the Show Quick Launch check box, and then click Apply. To add a shortcut to the quick launch bar: Go to “My Computer”, click on the icon for the program you want to add, drag it to the Quick Launch portion of the taskbar located next to the Start button.
