TaskbarX is a free program for Windows that allows you to enhance the appearance and functionality of your desktop by adding a customizable taskbar. Regardless if you are an IT professional, gamer, or just a casual user, there are features to help improve overall computing experience.
Simple setup and launch
The software comes packed in a compact deployment distribution, which requires no installation nor complex configuration. What is more, once launched, the taskbar consumes a low amount of system resources, especially during idle time.
The main capabilities are centered around two components. One for initializing the taskbar icon centering and one for personalizing other parameters. If you simply want to have your icons centered, you may choose to run only the first component. To monitor network traffic from the desktop, you may try another tool called Traffic Monitor.
Advanced personalization
If you would like to go further with the customization process, there is a dedicated control panel for accessing various helpful settings. Here you can choose to offset the taskbar icon from the relative center, for example. There is also support for multiple quick launch bars.
When working with several taskbars, you are able to pick the changes to be applied to the primary one as well as specify centering references for the Start menu, search, and more. You also have the option to add transparency, blur and acrylic effects.
