Hello,

Thank you for your posting.

To enable Quicklaunch bar automatically, please refer to below steps:

1) Logon as a user and setup the Taskbar settings like you want it(Quick
Launch, Unlock Taskbar etc) then log off as that user so that changes get
made to
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Stream
s\Desktop] "TaskbarWinXP"

2) Logon as same user as in step 1 above and then bring up regedit and
export the above hive out. And Logoff.

3) Logon as Administrator and then in a text editor bring up the reg key
that was saved out in step 2 above and make the following changes to it

Original HKCU key exported out in step 2:
=========================================
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Stream
s\Desktop]
"TaskbarWinXP"=hex: Snip, All binary data remains unchanged

Regkey after changes:
=====================
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Strea
ms\Desktop]
"Toolbars"=hex:11,00,00,00,00,00,00,00
"Default Taskbar (Personal)"=hex: Snip, All binary data remains unchanged

4) Then apply the new HKLM regkey and each new user that logs onto the
system will get the settings to the taskbar that have been specified.

In addition, there is also a tool can enable Quicklunch bar, you can just
put it into login script. You can send a email to me at
xxxx@microsoft.com and I will send it to you.

Have a nice day!

Takes some preparations but should be easy enough to do
Did not try it yet myself but will give it a go if time allows tomorrow.

[edit]
Added the text from google groups post.
He's talking about a QuickLunch bar LOL
Just mailed the guy to get a copy of the tool.

I thought IT was supposed to be an ENABLER of Technology and Support to achieve more growth for the Company, not just exercise their POWER over others.

Sorry, haven't had time to really test it either. The links looks promising tho, but will probably need some work. And off topic: yup, it's me, Alex, perhaps I should give ya a call sometime and we'll have a beer "on the good old days"

---

Will see if I get some time to test next week. Little difficult but will se if there is an opportunity.

BTW: I'm always in for a beer. You know the number (if not just drop me a message) it was yours once

Was probably designed for XP and 2K probably has different keys than XP. But, could very well be that it is only supported on English systems.
