Creating shortcuts in the Taskbar: Problem

    I want to drag program shortcut icons on my desktop to the Taskbar to create single-click startup icons.

    I have unlocked the Taskbar.

    However, when I drag one of the icons onto the Taskbar, a circle with a line through it appears (i.e. you can't do this!) and when I release the icon, it just springs back to its position on my desktop.

    What am I doing wrong?

    This is a new computer - just arrived. I had no problem doing this with my two other computers.

    Thanks.

    D.


    Edited: Sorted! Taskbar was set to Google Taskbar instead of Quicklaunch. Must be a DELL thing.

    ps. Windows XP Pro

    See can you browse to this folder:
    C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

    put your shortcut in here
