Remove and Personalize Desktop Icons
If you want to streamline your desktop and frequently used
applications, simply drag a desktop icon to the Quick Launch
portion of the taskbar. The relocated icon appears next to
the other Quick Launch icons (e.g., Internet Explorer,
Outlook Express). To remove the icon that still remains on
the desktop, drag it to the Recycle Bin. With this icon
removed from the desktop, there will be one less icon to
hunt for when you need to start a commonly-used program.
Also, if you need to access My Computer on a regular basis,
drag the My Computer icon to the Start button and you will
automatically create a cascading shortcut to My Computer
that will expand to reveal your drives, folders, and files.
With Windows 2000 incorporating the use of tool tips, you
can also hold your cursor over a partition in the Start Menu
for a moment to view its free space and capacity. You can
execute a file just by single-clicking it in the Start Menu
and open a folder by double-clicking it.
