Fixed Taskbar Icon Placement

[poolmon]

I've got some Icons that I want to pin to the taskbar (eg Exel & Libraries).

I want them to stay furthest left near the start button (just as they did in WIN XP fast launch area).

But, as I open other programs in WIN 7 these Icons move and others get inserted to their left. How can I stop this and emmulate the WIN XP fast launch toolbar behavior?

Hi Poolmon, you can enable the Quick Launch if you like.

Thanks Airbot . . .

It worked like a charm.
I would have never figured that out without your advice.

If you have pinned items, other programs shouldn't wedge themselves in there, they usually appear on the right side of pinned items and running programs.

You're welcome Poolmon.
