    "Minimize All" in XP - How

    I loved my "Minimize All" button in Win2000 Pro. Now I have XP and no minimize all button.

    Any advice on how to get it back?

    right click your taskbar

    then click the "start menu" tab and select the radio button that says "classic start menu"

      I asssume you are talking about the "show desktop" button that you had in your menu bar? If so, you don't need the classic view to get that to work.

          yeah use the Show Desktop icon - place it on your systray/taskbar (however you call it) and minimize everything with one click on it

              if you want that icon back.. do this:
              right mouse button on your taskbar. -> properties -> show quick launch -> ok

                    Yeah don't you fucking hate it how XP removed the best feature windows every developed (minimilize all). At least from default anyhow.

                    Whenever I reinstall XP ( and forget to backup my settings) I have to spend 2 hours going through XP removing all the shit and putting the good options back on. Hrmm, might be a good time now to backup my settings to cd.
