Taskbaric - a utility to iconize Windows taskbar buttons (for XP and Vista)
  1. Run the program to iconize the taskbar buttons.

  2. To undo the effect, simply run the program again.

  3. To get the optimal results with the XP version (taskbaric_xp.exe), apply the registry change Vishal Gupta describes in detail here to change the width of the buttons.

  4. In some cases, the registry change alone is sufficient. But if you're still seeing texts like this then taskbaric_xp.exe will hide those texts for you.

The program does not stay in memory, and it does not modify any system files.

Source code for Taskbaric is available at the Taskbaric site. Taskbaric is derived from Tclock2.

Impressive. Next time I boot XP I will apply the text changes and resize my buttons to the appropriate width.

i was wondering if you can make the program work even after a reboot, cause i made a shortcut of it to the startup folder and every time it runs it shows a command prompt and it kinda distracts me. so if you can do that it would be a huge thanks. it's really a great program! :)

Ha ha! Fair enough. I've updated the programs so that they no longer show any console windows.

Well.... Thank you so much... It really works!

Now I've a little question... How can I make my taskbar looking like as before this change?

Now I'm seeing centered icons, but without text. That's cool for Windows 7 appearance, but the thing is I'm just trying this, I don't want to leave this as is.

Could you add a little batch or something like that in order to undo this change, please?


Thanks in advance ;)
Faved :)

Thanks! :)

I assume you used the XP version. The effect will be gone after a reboot. I've also just updated the XP version so that running the program again will undo the "iconization" effect -- but you'll need to download the new version.
