Launching Programs with the Quick Launch Toolbar
If you like to launch programs by clicking icons (instead of menu items), but you don’t like having to minimize all your windows to do it, check out the Quick Launch toolbar. It’s a terrific compromise between the Start menu and a set of desktop icons.
The Quick Launch toolbar, like the desktop itself, is a place to put shortcuts that launch programs, open documents, or open folders. The icons on the toolbar are smaller than desktop icons, of course, but they’re visible whenever the toolbar is visible.
