For now, however, let’s just focus on the task at hand and review how to return the Windows 7 Taskbar to the look and feel of Windows XP. With the release of Windows 7 just days away we’re going to begin focusing more and more on Windows 7, its new features, how to use them, and how to customize the new operating system. Seriously, though, this is one of the many very great things about Windows 7 a lot of customization options are available.
Or perhaps you fear change and prefer the way “things have always been.” For example, say you’re trying to teach someone like grandma how to use a new operating system, or you yourself don’t have time to adjust or learn something new. The new feature keeps things straightforward and minimalistic and when coupled with Aero, beautiful.ĭepending on what you’re doing, sometimes it’s nice to use the old Taskbar.
Large icons replace text labels, and instances of the same application now stack onto one icon on the Taskbar. With Windows 7, Microsoft completely revamped not only the look but also the functionality of the Taskbar.
