Give your Windows 7 a different look! The program icons on the Windows 7 by default are situated on the left side on the taskbar, next to your Start orb. But if you’d like them to appear in the center of the taskbar and maybe give it a dock kind of a look, here is what you need to do.

Create an empty folder in your Documents folder, say MTTB. Next right click on the taskbar and unlock it. Again right click on it and select Toolbar > New toolbar. Select the empty folder MTTB.

Now right click on the new toolbar and uncheck Show Text and Show Title.

Next drag it (dotted seperator) to the left side, between the start orb and taskbar icons and release it.

Center align the taskbar icons. Lock the taskbar.

Thats it!
