Classic Shell

[Guest]

I would like to turn on Classic Mode for all my Windows XP workstation, but
when I do that, The Quick Launch option would disappear.

Is there a way to turn on Classic Mode and keep the Quick Launch toolbar?

Thank You.

I'm not 100% clear on what you are asking, but if you want a classic
look and feel (including the start menu and desktop theme) you can go
into User Config>Admin Templates>Start Menu and Taskbar> and enable
"Force Classic Start Menu", and then go into User>Admin>Control
Panel>Display>Desktop Themes and enable "Load a specific visual style.."
and leave the field blank to foce classic style.

When I've tested this, it did not remove the Quick Launch toolbar from
the task bar.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the reply,

I tried that once before, the Quick Launch toolbar disappear and the Taskbar
was locked down.

I will try it again.
