Although Windows 7 is based on Vista improvements, Windows 7 has a lot of its own original creations, such as the "library" function, more convenient AERO effects and so on. However, most people think that the improved taskbar is the most praiseworthy place of Windows 7, let us play with it, and create a win7 taskbar of its own personality.

The taskbar is arguably one of our most used features. When we first faced the Windows 7 taskbar, I might feel a little confused when I was excited. Compared with xp, the change is really big. I can find some common techniques through my own operation, but some functions need to be detailed. Research is only possible.

1. Display the quick launch bar

Windows 7 does not display the quick launch bar by default. You can retrieve the quick launch bar by the following method. Right click on the taskbar, select the toolbar, create a new toolbar, in the pop-up dialog box, enter: %UserProfile%AppDataRoamingMicrosoftInternetExplorerQuickLaunch, then the prompt will not pop up the path, do not care about it, click OK, then a name will appear For the folder of “QuickLaunch”, select and click “Select Folder” to complete the operation.

By default, there will be a "library" button on the taskbar, will open into the system's "ld"; The library & rdquo; folder, if you do not use the "library" function, you can set this button to open directly to “computer”.

Right-click on the "Library" button, then right click on "Windows Explorer", select “Properties>; the value in the Target (T) column is: %windir%explorer. Exe, I only need to add a space and a comma after this string of numbers, click OK to complete the modification.

Windows 7's taskbar is a lot bigger, the arrangement has also changed, if you are not used, you can adjust through the property settings.

Right-click on the taskbar to select the property and set it in the “Taskbar” tab. We can condition the size, position, and auto-hide of the taskbar icon, and also set the taskbar button. Arrangement mode, if you are not used to the Jumplist list, you can set the taskbar button to “ never merge ”.

4, use the right button function

We can drag various programs to the taskbar to quickly start, do you only use the left button to open this simple function? Right click on the icon on the taskbar and maybe there will be new features.

For example, if we right click on the "library" button, you can find that the commonly used folders are automatically listed according to your operation for quick access; if it is a browser like Maxthon, the right click icon will also display The most frequently viewed web page; if it is a WMP player, it will display the most frequently played videos, music, and more.

QuickJumplist is a domestic Windows 7 taskbar enhancement software. Although we can lock all kinds of software to the taskbar, the length of the taskbar is limited. If you use a lot of software and folders, a long list of icons on the taskbar is not good. You can use QuickJumplist. solve this problem.

This software has only one file and can be used with a single click. Click on the file to add any software execution program to the list of the software.

AERO glass effects are unique display effects in Vista and Windows 7, making the interface look more beautiful. After opening the glass effect in Windows 7, you will find that the Jumplist list on the taskbar is still black on white, which is a bit inconsistent with the overall effect, so we also use the glass effect for this Jumplist list.

First install 7stacks software, although it is in English, but the operation is very simple, after the installation is complete, click on the desktop "Createanew7stack", open the settings interface. The top "foldertouseforstack" column means to set the contents of the Jumplist list, you can select a file

7, Gmail Mail Preview

Although Windows 7 has a sidebar function, you can add various gadgets to the desktop, but one problem is if you are browsing the web or doing documentation. When you are working, you want to view the sidebar information, unless you set the sidebar tool to the front-end display, otherwise you must switch to the desktop to view it. The front-end display will have an impact on the operation, and it will be more convenient to set some important tools to the taskbar display.

Gmail is a popular email address. If you use Gmail under Windows 7, you must use the "GmailNotifierPlus" plugin to preview emails and write new emails in the taskbar. .

We can use the two plug-ins “TaskbarCpumeter” and “TaskbarmemoryMeter”, which can be displayed in the taskbar by double-clicking, but these two The difference between plugins is that they don't display detailed information, but they are represented by colors. We can click the icon on the taskbar to set the color to indicate the CPU and memory usage. It is convenient to view.
