    Possible way to use a vista taskbar in windows 7?


    I know you can fettle about and get a NEAR vista like look to your windows 7 taskbar, but tbh the vista taskbar just looks awesome to me, and yeah the topic seems basic enough as well

    Im aware vista and 7 seem to have rather alright compatability with eachover (you can use some vista drivers for 7 and such) so maybe a helping factor too?.

    Hello Zasheh,

    Was there anything specific about the Vista taskbar versus the W7 taskbar you were wanting?

    They are practically identical except that you are able to pin programs to the W7 taskbar.

    Here's a couple of items to help have the W7 taskbar to be more like it is Vista though.

    Hope this helps for now, :)
