It contains shortcuts. (If you don’t see one on your Taskbar, right-click any open space on the Taskbar, point to Toolbars, and then click Quick Launch.) You can change the location of a shortcut icon on the toolbar by dragging it.

Most people order the icons according to the programs they use most frequently. Instead, try alternating icons by applications that take a long time to load and those that take a short time to load. For example, place your icon for Notepad between the icons for, say, Word and Photoshop. If you’re in a hurry and accidentally click the icon next to the one you meant to click, you won’t have to wait for a program that takes a long time to load.
