Re: minimized tabs on taskbar wrong side?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Right click on the taskbar and unlock it. You may see a series of vertical dots that indicate
another tool bar is using the left side of your task bar. (typically the Quick launch uses this
area). You can either reduce the size of the offending tool bar or remove it totally. Remember to
relock your taskbar when you have the problem solved.
