taskbarx's Introduction

TaskbarX

TaskbarX gives you control over the position of your taskbar icons. TaskbarX will give you an original Windows dock like feel. The icons will move to the center or user given position when an icon gets added or removed from the taskbar. You will be given the option to choose between a variety of different animations and change their speeds. The animations can be disabled if you don't like animations and want them to move in an instant. The center position can also be changed to bring your icons more to the left or right based on the center position. Currently all taskbar settings are supported including the vertical taskbar and unlimited taskbars. TaskbarX has been in development since 6 may 2018. Also known as FalconX and Falcon10.

Features

42 different Animations including "none"

How to use TaskbarX with Windows 11?

Do you want to install Windows 11 but you really like the taskbar of windows 10? Then you can actualy patch the Windows 11 Explorer to get back the old taskbar. Doing this will make TaskbarX functional again in Windows 11. https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher

NOTE (for Windows 11 users): TaskbarX is build for Windows 10. On Windows 11 TaskbarX can only be used to change the background style of the taskbar until Windows 11 version number 10.0.22621.1265 Feb 2023. If you have a higher version than Windows 11 10.0.22621.1265 Feb 2023 TaskbarX will not work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What versions of Windows does TaskbarX support? TaskbarX only supports Windows 10 (and Windows 11 by using Windows 10 taskbar). Version 1709 and lower will have issues with the "taskbar styling" option but, the centering will work fine. Windows 7 does not work and is not supported. It could be working on Windows 8 but, is not officially tested and is also not supported.

Whats the difference between the normal version and the store version? The store version is exactly the same as the normal/free version. It's a donation sytem. The store version does give you the benefit of automatic updates and easy installing.

Does TaskbarX change my settings or registry? No, TaskbarX is completely portable doesn't change your settings or your registry. Closing TaskbarX will stop the centering.

How to run TaskbarX on startup? Once you click apply inside the Configurator a Taskschedule should be created with a delay of 3 seconds. If this doesn't work try increasing the delay to like 10 seconds or so inside the Configurator under the Taskschedule tab.

How do i uninstall TaskbarX? Open the "TaskbarX Configurator" and hit the "Stop TaskbarX" button. This will stop the TaskbarX process and put your icons back to the left. Then go to the "Taskschedule" tab and hit the "Remove" button. After that you can simply remove the files where you installed TaskbarX. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fj-gSF_nEyo

How to update TaskbarX? Open the "TaskbarX Configurator" and hit the "Stop TaskbarX" button. This will stop the TaskbarX process and put your icons back to the left. Then overwrite the old TaskbarX files with the updated ones. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dG8MlmeQsg

Error Windows cannot find 'shell:AppsFolder\Chris... after uninstalling Store version? At the moment the Store has no option to remove a taskschedule. So it has to be done manually until Microsoft provides a solution. Here's how to fix it. In your startmenu search for "Task Scheduler". On the left menu click on "Task Scheduler Library". In the middle a list will appear. Right click on the "TaskbarX" or "FalconX" entry and click "Delete". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtvxF1S7Dsw

Errors

The Store version is not capable of uninstalling a taskschedule.
If you get the error below then this explains how to fix it:

In your startmenu search for "Task Scheduler".
On the left menu click on "Task Scheduler Library". In the middle a list will appear.
Right click on the "TaskbarX" or "FalconX" entry and click "Delete".

You can also use SCHTASKS /DELETE /TN "TaskbarX PCNAMEUSERNAME" to remove the scheduled task from the command line.

taskbarx's Issues

Tray right click menu

Could you please add a tray menu with exit button? (Check for updates would be great too.)
Now it opens the full window regardless you click left or right mouse button.

Causes windows explorer and the windows shell to crash

I'm running FalconX on my Surface Book 2 and it occasionally causes my Windows taskbar to crash. The taskbar becomes unresponsive, eventually prompts me to End Process (stating Microsoft Windows has crashed), and then it appears that my entire Windows shell ends. Sometimes the Windows shell restarts after a few minutes, but other times I need to force my computer to shut down.

I'm using the Windows Store version, and my windows version OS Build 18362.418.

Overflow issue makes the icons hard to see

The Taskbar appear blue randomly need to open start menu in order to restore it

Taskbar Icons dont center on additional monitors when Windows Display 1 isn't Main Display.

When Windows Display 1 is configured as Main Display, the taskbar icons get centered.
When any other Display is configured as Main Display, only the Main Display's taskbar icons get centered.
I can confirm this issue for using two and three monitors.

Running:

FalconX 1.2.6.0
Windows 1903

After a bit of testing and multiple restarts (FalconX and Explorer) I get it to center at start, but after a few moments I get the same issue as in issue #31 or it stops working all together.

Toggle transparency if taskbar is auto hidden

I have these settings: FalconX set to make taskbar transparent, Windows set to automatically hide taskbar.
When I open an app with white background (web browser for example) I cannot see the taskbar icons because it is transparent and shows white icons on white background. Could it be made so that the taskbar transparency turns off when any window is maximized but turns back on automatically when not? This way I could have a transparent taskbar when on desktop or with not full screen window but would still be able to see the icons when in maximized window.

buttons cut off on my system

Windows 1903 / FalconX latest

for some locales such as Chinese/Japanese, the default font of windows is slightly different from English locale, thus the size of elements are different too, as an result, the necessary buttons cut off.

after force resizing the form with a tool, i can see them, but thats is not a solution, please change the layout, dont rely on pixels calculating

Feature Request: only show taskbar background on icon/menus

just an idea :)

Feature Request: Add a Recycling Bin to the taskbar with the right-click menu options of the desktop icon

Since I have an objective of having a desktop without icons I also wanted to move the Recycling Bin icon to the Taskbar (while maintaining the "Empty Recycling Bin" in the right-click menu).
There's a work-around to do that (create a new toolbar and add a shortcut to the Recycling Bin icon over there) but the icon does not center with the other icons of the taskbar using Falcon X.

Would like to ask if it's possible to create an option to add a shortcut to the recycling bin in Falcon X.

Version 14.07.2019 does not start in Windows 10 19.03

After downloading the version 14.07.2019, I deleted the 11.07.2019 version.
I clicked on the 14.07.2019 version and it did not start. No icon in tray, and no relocation of the taskbar. It's impossible to make it work.

I had to download again the 11.07.2019 version and have remained on that one.

Windows 10, 19.03 update version.

When a new application is opened, the apps, sometimes, don't centre themselves

When a new application is opened, the apps at the bottom, sometimes, don't move themselves to be at the center. If I restart the program, it works and after sometime, the issue comes again. I have included a screenshot which clearly shows that the apps just appears on the right side without the other apps moving themselves to be at the center. Please fix it.

Taskbar icons continuously moving

In Windows 10 1903, Build version: 18362.418, taskbar icons which are centered are not fixed on a single position, instead they are continuously, performing an oscillatory motion.

FalconX doesn't work for 1.3.0 and 1.4.0 on Windows 1809

Hello Chris,

And thank you for your work in FalconX! It's an awesome handy utility I combine with TranslucentTB to get a nice modern look and a dock utility all in one. I absolutely love it, as I find the classic windows taskbar position quite outdated.

On to the topic, I'm running Windows 1809 17763.615 (latest for my system). FalconX doesn't work with the latest 1.3.0 and 1.4.0 versions. I downloaded 1.2.0 from the archive, and can confirm this is running successfully!

I was using the UWP app before, on version 1.2.0 I believe (the UI is looking a bit different, but I think this is due to UWP/desktop differences?) as I never had any of the new options available.

Furthermore, I noticed that using 1.2.0 desktop app is blazing fast, unlike the UWP app which took a good few seconds to load (which flashing and etc.).

Causes "Explorer.exe" to crash

I'm running FalconX on my Surface Book 2, and I think it occasionally causes my Windows taskbar to crash. The taskbar becomes unresponsive, eventually prompts me to End Process (stating Microsoft Windows has crashed), and then it appears that my entire Windows shell ends. Sometimes the Windows shell restarts after a few minutes, but other times I need to force my computer to shut down.

I'm using the Windows Store version, and my windows version OS Build 18362.356.

I'm leaving it disabled for now until a fix is issued. If the same error happens again without FalconX running, then I'll post an update to this thread promptly.

Installer for non Store version

I think having some basic (un)installer would be really good, especially when installing new versions. Now I had to manually clean up the registry to get rid of the Startup task from the previous version and I think some settings left from the previous version may also be causing issue #47, but I don´t know.

Move Start Button, Search, Cortana, and Task View to center too

Example

New version suffers catastrophic failure.

This happens on startup with the latest version. The icons no longer center, either.

Program keeps closing itselft

Hello.
I configured FalconX to run at startup, and it works fine, but sometimes when I start my computer it closes for no apparent reason. After that, when I try to start it manually, it is always a battle because I have to open it like ten times until it sticks and stays running. Windows 10 1903, OS Build 18362.356.
Keep up the good work! :)

Broken if task menu is on left/right side not bottom

Broken if task menu is on left/right side not bottom, no icons appear.

Feature Request: Spacers/Per-Icon-offset

I'm not sure if it's possible or difficult, but I thought it would be nice to be able to set an offset per icon/icon-position, or somehow add spacing between specific icons, in order to create implied grouping.

This functionality exists within the Mac OS Dock by using a 'spacer' dock item, for example.

Icons cant find center after update and continue to try and move to the right side of task bar

I had my icons centered on the task bar and the newest update has made them want to align right side which also obscures some of my icons.

I have tried restarting app and windows and have yet no luck.

Multiple Monitors: Icons not centered when "main-taskbar" on second monitor.

When i have the "main-taskbar" on my second Monitor the icons on it are pushed to the right, not on the center like they should be.
The second taskbar stays fine.

This doesn´t occur when i have the "main-taskbar" on my 1st Monitor.

FalconX 1.2.5
Windows 10 1903

Transparency not working for a moment when clicking on start

If I set taskbar to transparent, then it blinks for a second whenever I open or close Start.

Icons don't center correctly

I'm running the Microsoft Store version and I got updated to the newest version 1.2.8.0 today. Now all my taskbar icons are shifted way too much to the right and the center-checkbox in the menu does not do much. Here is a screenshot:

I've tried uninstalling and downloading it again as well as using the regular .exe from GitHub Releases as well as restarting my PC.

I am running Windows 10 Pro 1903 (Build 18362.418) and I am only using one monitor. I have Spacedesk Server (allows you to use tablet or phone as second display) installed but not in use and also tried stopping it but that did not help. I also have Wallpaper Engine and TranslucentTB installed but I also closed those and it had no effect.

Localization

I am saddened that the program is in English only.
I suggest to localize the program.
I am ready to assist in the translation into Russian.
(For example, you can use the service Crowdin or any other. Crowdin is free for Open source projects.)

New versions don't work on "Windows 7"

The last version that works well with Windows 7 is 24.06.2019.
The new 1.1.2 version runs but the animation when a task is removed is wrong.
The new 1.1.3, 1.1.4 versions don't start by anyway.

[wish] Hide Trayicon

Ich fände es klasse, wenn man optional das Trayicon ausblenden könnte. Sprich die Optionen über eie Verknüpfung oder das wiederholte starten der Anwendung hervorruft. Die Einstellung verwendet man in der Regel nicht so oft, sodass ein TrayIcon gelegentlich überflüssig ist und bei vielen anwendungen die im Tray-Liegen mehr überblig schaffen.
Die Funktion wünsch ich mir optional.

New update keeps a window open for it to be running

The new update keeps a window open when it is running. So alt+tabbing also selects that window. Closing the window also closes the application.
Standard behaviour for an app running in the tray would be not to show up in the open windows, correct?

Req: Add Fluent/Blur style transparency options.

I've personally always found straight up 100% transparent to look slightly odd when you've got windows maximized. Having the option to set it as 'Fluent' or smilar would be neat.

idea/tip: Consider using Electron for Settings UI

Have you ever thought about using Electron or React?
Don´t know how familiar with webdesign you are but if you are then it could help to solve the sizing problem you mentioned at issue #18 because you can use CSS stylesheets. Also you can easily change the size of the elements based on if the user is using touch screen laptop (so bigger UI elements are needed to make touch control comfortable) or just a regular desktop. Recently, CSS added support for detecting the desired color theme (light/dark) based on system settings.
Another advantage is that it is a good choice for a Windows Store version too (Skype UI is made using React for example.)
And these are just some examples, there is much more.
Hope this will be helpful.

Add option to make FalconX run on startup

I tried to do this with shell:startup but the directory changes every time it updates

New build not working properly (off centered position) (single monitor)

Save the configuration file in the same folder

For Developer.
I want to save the configuration file in the same folder as the program.
Not the My Documents folder.

Move background windows upwards when taskbar transparent

Maybe you could use your experience with Aerial to move apps´ windows a little bit upwards when taskbar set as transparent and not auto hidden. This would prevent background windows to be seen through the taskbar when other window maximized. (But if you decide to implement this, please make it optional because some users might want to display some Rainmeter widgets under the transparent taskbar.)

Taskbar centered regardless of the settings

Taskbar does not get back to normal left alignment after unchecking the center option. It moves slightly off to the right hovewer. When I exit Falcon completely, the taskbar gets back to normal.
I have used version 1.2.8, 1.2.9 (testing) and now I am on 1.2.9 (latest build from 27th), maybe the settings from the older versions might have remained active?

[wish] work togehter (7+ Taskbar Tweaker)

Da ich es in deutsch leichter habe Beschreibungen präziser abzugeben werde ich mich auf meine Muttersprach zunutze machen. Bei Fragen oder Problemen einfach melden ;-)

Ich würde mich freuen, wenn Sie mit "FalconX"-Projekt und dem Autor des "7+ Taskbar Tweaker" zukünftig zusammenarbeiten würden. Beide Tools sind Portable und ergänzen sich ganz gut.
Man könnte sich ein Tray-Icon und die Optionen teilen und die Community wäre sicher sehr dankbar für die Verschmelzung. Ich habe bereits den Kontakt gesucht und warte noch auf ein Feedback.
Einige Bugs müssten jedoch behoben werden.... da bei manchen Einstellungen von "7+ Taskbar Tweaker" die Funktion von "FalconX" stoppen, sodass bisher noch ein manueller Neustart von "FalconX" vonnöten ist.
Was halten Sie davon?

Para activar a depuração just-in-time (JIT), o ficheiro .config para esta
aplicação ou computador (machine.config) tem de ter o
valor jitDebugging definido na secção system.windows.forms.
A aplicação também tem de ser compilada com a depuração
activada.

Por exemplo:

Quando a depuração JIT está activada, qualquer excepção não processada
será enviada para o depurador JIT registado no computador
em vez de ser processada por esta caixa de diálogo.

Last version that worked in my system was the 21.09 version. I am not using the store version.

Offset not applying until manual refresh

I understand a refresh is probably needed for a offset value change to take effect. Could the reresh be made automatically when OK button is pressed? (Because you would usually expect OK button to apply the changes without any other actions needed.)

'Run at startup' button missing.

Windows 10 1903
Downloaded from the Store

Started getting this error from last week.

Run at boot

Run along with shell (explorer.exe)

Play/pause button stops working when FalconX is running

My Logitech G810 keyboard has media keys. Whenever I run FalconX, the Play/Pause button stops working. As soon as I quit FalconX, it starts working again.

I don't know if it's caused by a conflict with Logitechs G Hub software, but it prevents me from using FalconX.

Multi Monitor Support

The software doesn't center the taskbar on the non-primary monitor

FalconX not launching from windows store

In FalconX version 1.1.5.0 from the microsoft store there is an option to launch on startup, but even when selected, when I restart my computer the app does not launch. I am on windows version 1903. Is it a local problem, or is it an ongoing issue to resolve.

Feature Request: Only center non-pinned items

I don't know if this is even possible, but I think it'd be more visually consistent if only non-pinned icons were centered (as an option). This would leave the pins aligned with the system icons (search/cortana/task view), and leave running applications centered/separated visually, which I like the idea of.

Thanks for the tool! Didn't even know I wanted something like this.

Startup Problem (Microsoft Store Version)

the app does not launch at startup even i enable the startup
