Removing Toolbar from Windows taskbar

Hello,
I need to deploy a script on almost 150 PCs with Windows 7 64bit. The script will uninstall and remove everything related to Office 2000. The script is ready, it`s working absolutely fine. However when we did install Office 2000 we alos did create a Toolbar
called "office 2000" and it was attached to Taskbar. Now when I will remove everything from that particular folder the taskbar still sits in there. I tried to find a registry key/value responsible for that Toolbar, but I cant`t anything suitable.
I`ve made a research in Google, but still nothing special found.
Does anyone know how to remove it using some commands in CMD/Powershell or by using VBScript?
Could anyone please advice on that?
Thank you

Hi Rubens,
I found a similar discussion, and this seems has no API to do this, simply because it would get abused, for the
reasons listed here:
Why
is there no programmatic access to the Start menu pin list?
For more detailed information, please go through this thread:
Enabling/Showing
the Links Toolbar on the Windows Taskbar via PowerShell
If there is anything else regarding this matter, please feel free to post back.
Best Regards,

  • How to remove Skype from the taskbar

    I want to fully remove Skype from my taskbar so that when i x out the Skype window it shuts the program down . Now i have to X out both the window and the icon in the taskbar to shut it down.
    No biggie, but i just find it semi-annoying and unnecessary.  

    it is by design that when clicking the X on the window it will close it on the notification area.if you want to hide the window when pressing X go to tools > options > advanced > advanced settings > keep skype in the taskbar while i'm signed in.
    remove the checkmark and now when pressing the X it will hide it in the notification area.
    but if you want to exit it just right click it and select Quit

  • Why MS remove Exchange from Windows 2012 Essentials?

    Why MS remove Exchange from Windows 2012 Essentials and support just with Office 365 and Exchange on-premise?

    I don't think Microsoft has ever said exactly why.  Some possible reasons, pick one (or more).
    1.  Because Exchange has become too resource intensive.
    2.  Because Microsoft wants to drive small business to O365.
    3.  Because Small and Medium business were already flocking to O365 and abandoning on premise Exchange.
    4,  Microsoft built out all those expensive data centers and needed someone to use them for something.
    5.  Hosting Exchange on the DC has always violated best practices, now that there are alternatives no need to continue.
    6.  All of the above.

    Before trying to remove try re-installing CS3 right on top of the current install.  Often re-installing Photoshop on top of itself fixes the install.  If it does be sure to apply the cs3 updates.

  • Remove R12 from windows note  Released!

    Hi Guys/Ladies,
    FYI Note 567507.1- How to Remove an Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 Windows Environment has been released. The note can be used to Cleanup a failed R12 Install at windows but can also be used to remove a R12 Environment from a system where more then one environment has been installed without removing the other environment (meaning cleanup the registry and remove the environment from the inventory without deleting it)
    Have Fun with it!
    Kind Regards,
    Ronald Rademaker
    Just realized I posted in in the 11i Thread, so also created it in the R12 one.
    But I believe the same note could be used for 11i also (will test asap)

  • Can't delete a file displayed in ListView ("File in use") even after removing it from window.

    I have a ListView displaying a collection of icons. The user can then select different icons (checkboxes) to do things like Copy or Delete.
    Problem is, when I try to delete the actual file from the disk, I get an error telling me the file is "in use" ("vshost.exe", the VS runtime during testing).
    I thought maybe it was because it still appeared in the window and was still in the ImageList, but even after removing it from both locations, I still get the error. My code:
    Dim intCnt As Integer = 0
    Do
    ImageList2.Images.RemoveAt(intIconsChecked(intCnt)) ' Remove from collection.
    lsvCollection.Items.RemoveAt(intIconsChecked(intCnt)) ' Remove from ListView window.
    FileIO.FileSystem.DeleteFile(strIconPath & "\Icon" & Format(intCnt + 1, "00") & ".rsc") ' "+1" b/c Icons start with "01".
    FileIO.FileSystem.DeleteFile(strIconPath & "\Icon" & Format(intCnt + 1, "00") & ".png") ' "In use" Error here.
    ".rsc" deletes just fine, so I know I'm deleting the correct file. Why does VS still think the file is still "in use"?
    Thx

    Mugsy,
    Consider this as food for thought, even if you don't use it.
    If you set it up right then you can control how it works. A reference is a reference and any left behind will cause you grief down the road when you try to delete things.
    As an example, a simple class follows. It does *not* implement IDispose, although it does have a private shared Dispose method in it:
    Public Class MyImages
    Private _bmp As Bitmap
    Private _name As String
    Private _sourceFilePath As String
    Private Sub New(ByVal bmp As Bitmap, _
    ByVal name As String, _

    _bmp = bmp
    _sourceFilePath = filePath.Trim
    _name = name.Trim
    End Sub
    Public ReadOnly Property Bmp As Bitmap
    Get
    Return _bmp
    End Get
    End Property
    Public ReadOnly Property Name As String

    When you look through that, look specifically at the "Remove" method and in particular, look at the order in which things are done. That's the critical part in this.
    I tested it with a simple form:
    Two buttons, a checkbox, and a picturebox. I also copied a small folder full of image files to my desktop since I'll be deleting a file from it. Following is the code for Form1:
    Option Strict On
    Option Explicit On
    Option Infer Off
    Imports System.IO.Path
    Public Class Form1
    Private miList As New List(Of MyImages)
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
    ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles MyBase.Load
    Dim desktop As String = _
    My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Desktop
    Dim imgFolder As String = _
    Combine(desktop, "Images")
    PictureBox1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle
    For Each imgFilePath As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(imgFolder)
    MyImages.AddNew(miList, imgFilePath)
    Next
    btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = False
    CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = False
    End Sub
    Private Sub btn_ShowFirstImage_Click(sender As System.Object, _
    e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles btn_ShowFirstImage.Click
    Try
    If miList.Count >= 1 Then
    With PictureBox1
    .SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom
    .Image = miList(0).Bmp
    End With
    btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = True
    CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = True
    End If
    Catch ex As Exception
    MessageBox.Show(String.Format("An exception was thrown:{0}{0}{1}", vbCrLf, ex.Message), _
    "Exception", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
    End Try
    End Sub
    Private Sub btn_RemoveFirstImage_Click(sender As System.Object, _
    e As System.EventArgs) _
    Handles btn_RemoveFirstImage.Click
    Try
    If miList.Count >= 1 Then
    MyImages.Remove(miList, miList(0).SourceFilePath, CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Checked)
    End If
    PictureBox1.Image = Nothing
    btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = True
    CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = True
    Catch ex As Exception
    MessageBox.Show(String.Format("An exception was thrown:{0}{0}{1}", vbCrLf, ex.Message), _
    "Exception", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
    End Try
    End Sub
    End Class
    Running it is straightforward:
    Now when I click to show the first one:
    A different image is shown because that first one no longer exists - either in the collection or in the folder.
    Closing/disposing all references is the key and the order matters.
    Something to consider the next time around. :)
    Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.

  • Removed toolbar from Navigator in Design Editor and want it back

    Hi,
    this is more funny than actually serious stuff that it is usually discussed here. I accidentally dragged toolbar from Navigator in Design Editor so it was floating palette. I clicked close window button on palette and have never seen toolbar again. Tried close Navigator, close Design Editor, right click on various places no luck, my dear little toolbar is gone.
    Please give me my toy back!!! =:>)
    Thank you,
    Radek

    Radek,
    Use the View menu and you should see that the Toolbar option is missing a tick. Select Toolbar and all will
    be well again...

  • HT1923 How do I remove iTunes from Windows 8 computer

    How do I completely remove iTunes from a Windows 8 computer

    Hello mjons79,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1420
    To deauthorize a computer
    Open iTunes.
    From the Store menu, choose Deauthorize This Computer. (In earlier versions of iTunes, access this option from the Advanced menu).
    When prompted, enter your Apple ID and password, then click Deauthorize.
    Remember to deauthorize your computer before you sell it, give it away, or get your computer serviced. Also, make sure you deauthorize your computer before you upgrade your RAM, hard disk or other system components, or reinstall Windows. If you do not deauthorize your computer before you upgrade these components, one computer may use multiple authorizations.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • Removing apps from Windows 8

    I am using Power shell to remove the modren apps from all users on Windows 8.  Can I just run the following Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online or do I need to run Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers before I run the
    other script? Is the text case sensitive?

    Hi,
    Regards this issue,you need to understand these commands.
    The Get-AppxProvisionedPackage cmdlet gets information about app packages (.appx) in an image that are set to install for each new user.
    The Get-AppxPackage cmdlet gets a list of the app packages (.appx) that are installed in a user profile.
    The Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage cmdlet removes app packages (.appx) from a Windows image. App packages will not be installed when new user accounts are created. Packages will not be removed from existing user accounts.
    The Remove-AppxPackage cmdlet removes an app package (.appx) from a user account.
    We need to use Get-AppXPackage -AllUser command to get the package information fist.
    Also,we can use the script as Yannick Plavonil mentioned to remove Built-in Applications from Windows 8.

  • How to properly remove "Network" from Windows Explorer and Save Dialog boxes?

    I've recently rolled out Windows 7 and noticed that in some applications (Office 2003 - yes we are due for an upgrade - happening later this year), when a user clicks the down arrow in a "Save As" dialog box to view the available locations - a
    list of seemingly every computer in the broadcast domain is generated and displayed.  This takes about 30-45 seconds.  I don't want my users to be able to view a list of every computer in their broadcast domain, and I especially don't want them to
    be presented with said list every time they try to save something.  In newer apps, the list is not automatically displayed but is still accessible by clicking the "Network" selection.
    What is the proper way to remove this?
    I've tried the following:
    1) Disabling the NetBios over TCPIP service - works but prevents other things from working properly.
    2) Disabling the Computer Browser service - does not work.
    3) Changing HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}\ShellFolder\Attributes from b0040064 to b0940064 as suggested here -http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/39699-network-add-remove-navigation-pane.html
    .  This seems to work but I cannot find anything that says this is supported by Microsoft and I am wary of what side effects may occur.
    4) Using a GPO to enable the "No Computers Near Me in Network locations" and "No Entire Network in Network locations." - no change.
    It seems like there should a simple way to do this as I can't be the only admin that doesn't want their users browsing a list of every computer on the network.
    Thanks!
