Download Windows 7 Taskbar for Windows XP

One of the changes in Windows 7 Taskbar, compared to Windows XP or Vista, is the iconized taskbar. If you open a progam or folder in previous Windows versions like XP, the name of it is displayed on the button within the taskbar. In Windows 7 taskbar, the name is no longer displayed. There is only the icon of the opened program.

Windows 7 Taskbar Iconizer is a program that replaces Windows XP taskbar with Windows 7 taskbar. Hence, whenever you open a program, you’ll see only the icon on the taskbar. The look is just like the icons you put in the Quick Launch bar. The benefit is obvious; the taskbar has more space.

Windows 7 Taskbar Iconizer is portable, but you need to restart Windows to apply the changes you make to the taskbar. If you don’t like the result, you can revert the changes using the same program.
