I'm not sure if I'm in the right place to ask this question but...
Where is the info on additional toolbars on the taskbar stored?
Are they saved in the registry somwhere or on a data file???

I can't find them anywhere. I want to be able to save whatever it is I need
to save so that I can restore them after reloading my W2k system. Just don't
want to Mickey Mouse around with the "Add New Toolbar" business from the task
bar.

Can anybody help, please??
Thanks, Jim
 
Hi Jim

From experience I have found toolbar settings configuration data to be
saved in the location:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID
however most of the data is in binary form.

Try settings the toolbars as you want and then exporting the data to
re-import to another account (You may have to log-off for settings to
get saved).

For reference - if you also want the configuration of the start bar then
(i.e. where it is, size etc..) then this location is
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StuckRects
on WinNT4 / 2000 or
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StuckRects2
on XP / 2003

Hope this is of use
