Create a nice toolbar for all your Video Tools Programs.

[tonyp12]

Some of you already know how to do this.


But for others (WindowsXP):

Create a folder named: Video Tools (for example) on your C: drive
Created shortcuts of the tools you want by right clicking on the icon
and select "create shortcut"

Drag this new icon to the video tools folder.
When you have all the programs you want listed,
drag the video tool folder to the very top of your screen.

Right mouse click on it to select auto hide.
and rename icons to your taste.

Now you have a nice command center.

P.S screen capture done with the excellent program snagit.

Wow, I thought searching my desktop for every program I needed was a necessary evil. That is what I like about this site: You always can learn something useful here. Thanks, TonyP12!!!

The shortcut folder can also be dragged to the taskbar and will make a popup that even allows cascadind menu's if you drop diretories into your shortcut folder!

Dies not take up all but a pinch of desktop space!
