Add A Custom Toolbar to Windows 


Adding a Custom toolbar is Easy! Here's how..

STEP 1: Simply right click on your taskbar.





STEP 2: Hover the pointer over 'Toolbars'.

STEP 3: Click 'New Toolbar' from context menu. (You can unselect any toolbars you no longer need.) 


 


STEP 4: Now you can choose any folder you want.


 


STEP 5: Have fun adding new toolbars at any time!

This process works equally well on Windows 7 too! Try it on your system today.
