Default a quick way to explore or launch files!

In the interest of keeping things here interesting and alive I present the following:

Received this tip from someone many years ago, it's a way to quickly view and / or launch files on your computer. I use it, thought you may like it too.

Add 'My Computer' to your task bar!
Once done, to explore and launch files on your HDD just click the double right arrow ( ) on your taskbar and a scrolling menu pops up showing all accessible drives/directories/files on your PC. Here's how to add it (and it can easily be removed) ..

1. right click taskbar
2. select toolbars, new toolbar
3. highlight 'My Computer', click OK
4. resize, move (etc.) the new toolbar to look as you desire. If you'd like it really compact just right click the 'My Computer' toolbar, click Show Title (which will remove the title).

Now when you want to explore and / or launch files quickly you can left click the and go!
Don't like it? Remove it by right clicking taskbar, select Toolbars, click 'My Computer'. It's gone!
