I am currently using Win10 and I love the clean aesthetic so far. I know how to "pin" stuff to the taskbar (on the left by the start menu)but I would like to utilize the Quick Launch more... the very far right of the task bar that is.

I currently have a 34" UW monitor and can only see approx 4 quick launch icons at once before I have to use the drop down (actually up) arrow. I have a massive toolbar with this monitor and want more icons. Is there a way?

Im not on my Win10 machine at the moment to confirm but the previous versions if you just drag the extra icon from the box when you hit the up arrow you can drag it down to the taskbar

But wouldn't that just then replace another icon by placing it back into the dropbox.

I believe I figured it out, right click taskbar> properties> Notification Area > Customize>Always show all icons or w/e

OP, are you talking about the "Systray" icons, in the lower-right side of the TaskBar?

Or are you talking about the "QuickLaunch" toolbar, which existed in Win98 and XP? (And Vista?)
