OpenTaskbarProperties

OpenTaskbarProperties is a simple tool that provides a shortcut to the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties" in Windows. It comes in handy for quickly accessing the Taskbar, Start Menu, and Toolbars sections to customize their settings. This action is normally performed by opening the taskbar right-click menu and selecting the Properties entry.

There is no installation involved. The whole application is based on a single .exe file that can be placed anywhere on the disk or on a USB flash drive, in order to launch it directly. It doesn't require any other DLLs and doesn't change the OS registry configuration.

By default, the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties panel is opened in the lower left corner of the screen, just like when opening the Properties dialog.

However, you can run OpenTaskbarProperties with the "/?" command to view a small panel with other command-line parameters, each designed to change the open location of the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties dialog: "/mouse" opens at the mouse location, "/mouse + |-[x] + |-[y]" opens at the mouse location + or - x,y value, while "/screen x y" opens at the x,y location which is relative to the upper left corner of the screen.
