I really like the Quick Launch bar, and I still use it on all computers where it is installed - for example, on the workstation behind which I am writing this article. But I like it just as much and perfectly replaces the Quick Launch bar - at least for me. However, a rather noisy minority of users are loudly expressing their outrage at the disappearance of the Quick Launch bar from the new Microsoft OS, so in this article I will show you how to get it back.Restore Quick Launch

Toolbar disappeared in Microsoft Word? What to do and how to get access to all those tools without which work with documents is simply impossible? The main thing is, do not panic, as it disappeared and will return, especially since it is quite easy to find this loss.
As the saying goes, everything that isn't done is for the best, so thanks to the mysterious disappearance of the Quick Access Toolbar, you can learn not only how to get it back, but also how to customize the items that appear on it. So let's get started.
If you are using Word 2012 or higher, you just need to press one button to return the toolbar. It is located in the upper right part of the program window and looks like an upward-directed arrow located in a rectangle.
Press this button once, the disappeared toolbar returns, press again - it disappears again. By the way, sometimes it really needs to be hidden, for example, when you need to fully and completely concentrate on the content of the document, and so that nothing unnecessary is distracted.
This button has three display modes, you can choose the appropriate one just by clicking on it:
- Hide the ribbon automatically;
- Show only tabs;
- Show tabs and commands.
The name of each of these display modes speaks for itself. Choose the one that is most convenient for you during your work.
If you are using MS Word 2003 - 2010, to enable the toolbar, you must perform the following manipulations.
1. Open the tab menu "View" and select item "Toolbars".
2. Check the boxes next to those items that you need to work.
3. Now they will all be displayed on the Quick Access Toolbar as separate tabs and / or tool groups.
Enabling individual toolbar items
It also happens that not the entire toolbar “disappears” (disappears, as we have already figured out), but its individual elements. Or, for example, the user simply cannot find any tool, or even a whole tab. In this case, you need to enable (configure) the display of these same tabs on the quick access panel. This can be done in the section "Parameters".
1. Open the tab "File" on the quick access panel and go to the section "Parameters".
Note: In earlier versions of the Word, instead of the button "File" there is a button "MS Office".
2. Go to the section in the window that appears "Customize Ribbon".
3. In the "Main Tabs" window, check the boxes next to the tabs that you need.
- Advice: By clicking on the "plus" next to the name of the tab, you will see the lists of tool groups that these tabs contain. Expanding the "plus signs" of these items, you will see a list of tools presented in groups.
4. Now go to the section "Quick Access Toolbar".
5. In the section "Select teams from" select item "All teams".
6. Go through the list below, find the necessary tool there, click on it and press the button Addlocated between the windows.
7. Repeat this step for all other tools that you want to add to the Quick Access Toolbar.
Note:You can also delete unnecessary tools by pressing the button "Delete", and sort their order using the arrows to the right of the second window.
- Advice: In section "Customize the Quick Access Toolbar"located above the second window, you can choose whether the changes you made will be applied to all documents or only to the current one.
8. To close the window "Parameters" and save your changes, click "OK".
Now on the quick access panel (toolbar), only the tabs, groups of tools you need and, in fact, the tools themselves, will be displayed. By properly configuring this panel, you can significantly optimize your work time, resulting in increased productivity.

Plus the creation of the same additional panels, since Ultimate is part of Xtreme (more details here - (in English)). Separately, Ultimate, can create only additional panels (not counting built-in widgets).
And of course Xtreme is the most complete version, because there are many different "tricks" in it.

Question: When entering Windows XP, the taskbar does not work (the explorer.exe process starts)
When entering Windows XP, the taskbar does not work (not clicked)
I go to Task Manager, delete "explorer.exe" and create a new process "explorer.exe".
How do I fix the problem?
I have quick launch bar disappeared, along with all the icons, how to restore it now and whether more than three icons can be placed there. I saw ten shortcuts of programs on the quick launch panel of our system administrator, when asked how to do this, she says the spell must be said. But seriously?
The quick launch bar is gone
You know Tatyana, she also disappeared from me somewhere, I really don't use it, probably it's a virus that steals it from everyone, let's try to figure it out together.
Right-click on the taskbar, then the toolbar, check the box Quick start and our missing quick launch bar appears where it should be.
I don’t know about you, but I didn’t have anything, let's remember the settings of the old woman XP, mastering the seven and eight is good, but you don’t need to forget your old friends either. Right-click again on the taskbar and select properties,
look in the Taskbar tab there should be a check mark Selectionpress the quick launch bar, if it is not there, then we put it.
If in this case the Quick Launch panel did not appear, then the icons were removed manually, we try to reboot and drag the icons we need with the mouse to the lower left corner of the taskbar, the three program icons should remain in the Quick Launch panel.
It rarely happens, but the above two methods do not help, then read on, and at the same time consider the question: How to arrange the required number of shortcuts on the Windows XP Quick Launch bar without a spell? After all, the allotted space is very small and instead of the icons we need, two arrows pointing to the right are displayed, which open the list of programs that do not fit into the quick launch panel.
Right-click on the taskbar and uncheck the Dock taskbar item,
as you can see, the delimiter immediately appears, move the mouse over it and it takes the form of a double arrow,
click on it with the left mouse and without releasing it, move it to the right as much as necessary, release the mouse and fix the taskbar. That's all, now with the mouse we drag the shortcuts we need to the launcher,
let there be even ten. In this case, the Quick Launch will definitely appear.
If you cannot return the Minimize all windows icon, open notepad and write the text and save it with the extension. scf, then drag it with the mouse to the quick launch panel.
