Static Drive Letter in Taskbar 1

[lrfcbabe]

I run a bat file to open up frenquetly used drives. They all show up in my Taskbar in a nice little group starting with external then local then mapped drives. Each displaying The assigned drive letter C, D, F etc. Is there any way I can cause windows to NOT change the drive letter displayed? I want the drive letter to be static in the taskbar no matter how much browsing I do in the folder view.

You mean you want them to show across the bottom, and not nested within the Explorer item on the taskbar? If so, then try enabling Quick Launch, and stick them in that folder instead of on the taskbar.

This might not do exactly what you want, but may be a workaround:

Go to Control Panel, click Appearance And Personlization, then Folder Options. Click the "View" tab, then check the checkbox that says "Display the full path in the title bar.". This way, the drive letter will always show as the left-most character in the taskbar preview.

That will sufice guitarzan, I was not wanting the letter to change at all no matter what folder i was in on that drive.

Thanks everyone for your responses.
