on the left side of the screen I have somehow gotten a
taslpanel on my desktop. I have tried everything that I
can think of to get rid of it. its the same one that
shows up when you open a folder. Its about 2 inches wide
and goes from top to bottom. It has File and Folder
tasks, Other Places, etc.. along the left side of the
screen. Any ideas how I can get back my desktop space
and get rid of this ? I have been through the
properties for the video card etc.. HELP>......
 
It i s not the Office Short Cut or Tool Bar acciedntally
activated. Do you have Office 2002?
 
Hello Jim,

If you wish to remove "Common Tasks" from the Desktop,
I suggest you visit MS-MVP Kelly's website at
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Note the instructions at the top of the page,
then scroll down to line 15,
(Remove Common Tasks from the Desktop)

Download the file, "RemoveCommonTasksFromDesktop.reg",
then double-click and follow the prompts.

Jan
