Lock Taskbar iconsI find myself inadvertently dragging ICONS out of my TASKBAR and back on to
my desk top. It's not a HUGE deal I just move them back into the taskbar and continue working. However I was curious, is there a way to LOCK the ICONS in the task bar, so they are unmoveable. This would be nice to know in a Business environment as well when your trying to lock down the machines. Marrow wrote:

If you drag an icon from the QuickLaunch, it's copied, not moved, so it doesn't go away in the QL. And none of the others can be moved unless you've created your own folders on the TaskBar. HTH, Twayne Sorry I was mistaken. I ment the Quick Launch ICONS not taskbar icons.
Is there a way to lock the QL icons so they are not moveable??

I dragged an icon off my QL yesterday, and it appeared on the desktop plus remained in the QL. But, this morning it was gone! So I guess it really does remove them by dragging. I'd have sworn it didn't. HTH, Twayne Show quoteHide quote > > "Twayne" wrote: > >> Marrow wrote: >>> I find myself inadvertently dragging ICONS out of my TASKBAR and >>> back on to my desk top.
