preview pane... the window that pops up when you roll over it...
Hi
I hope this is in the right place.
I'm new to Win7 ... and I must say, it is not as great as they said it was gonna be.
It's Vista, and maybe worse - for me.
So ... if anyone can help me with a few of the more irritating options, I will be eternally grateful.
Sorry for making such a long post. I've only had this computer for a few weeks, and every single thing I try to do on it becomes a project. I do not understand why they keep making things more complicated. I liked XP .... (sigh)
- How do you turn off those preview windows, sort of like pop ups when you mouse over your task bar? I had to put my task bar on TOP, since chat windows are on the bottom and every time I went to type it would activate that task bar preview window of what else is open. I really want to just turn that off.
- How can I get show desktop back in quick links? I can not find that setting anywhere. How do I turn off the "desktop" button on the task bar? If i want to get to my desktop, I prefer to go there.
- How do I get that little bar in the corner that shows what is active / running. It has one but it only shows a few things. I'm on my pc @ work right now, and I can see that my email is open, it has the icon for my speakers, one for the anti virus software, ... SAM Broadcasting runs after you close it, and the only way I can close it was to right click on the little icon that used to show up in that bar, but no longer does. :-(
