>I use Windows 98 1st Edition, the only OS I am even vaguely familiar with. As I see it W98 by default splatters program shortcuts across the screen. The way I work I have chosen instead to keep Desktop Shortcut Icons (.LNK = 1kb shortcut to any-folder\file or any-program.exe) on the Desktop Toolbar which is created by right-clicking Windows Taskbar (located at bottom of screen with Start Menu button on left bottom corner, Clock and System Tray on right) and selecting Desktop from the popup menu. I then disable Text so that I have just Small Icons in a row on a diminutive toolbar. I arrange these icons to my preference and then select Auto Hide from the Taskbar Properties menu. Therefore, I have a hidden (pops up when I move the cursor to the bottom of the screen) Windows Taskbar and no icons covered by piles of open windows on my dektop. Some people may use the QuickLaunch Toolbar to achieve this in part, however I have very many (56 at the moment, sometimes more) frequently used shortcuts and it has been my understanding that using QuickLaunch will load more stuff than I wish to start with, so I have it unchecked. Again, this is a matter of convenience and personal preference, and one I am happy to use as Windows allows. However, W98 provides no option to lock the taskbar toolbars, whether desktop, quicklaunch, address, links, or any other you choose to create, as in Explorer.exe or IE6.>
< In other words, I do not understand what component in CC should be disabled to prevent this, or even what component of Windows I would need to back up and restore after running CC, as there is no mention of this in the fine documentation.
That said, I am likely laboring under any number of misconceptions, bear in mind that my screen name is not "PCwhizkid". If I had the time I would try every conceivable setting in CC until I stumbled on the culprit. If I were a genius I would make my own program as powerpacked as CC only it wouldn't destroy my desktop settings! But I'm just an overworked underpaid schmo, hoping someone can give me a clue as to what is going on.>
