Taskix lets you rearrange your Windows task bar
Windows makes it easy to rearrange the items in your quick start menu by clicking and dragging. But for some reason, you can't move the items in your taskbar.A while back we told you about Taskbar Shuffle, a simple program for reorganizing running programs in your taskbar. It's a lightweight program taking up just about 600k of memory. But for the memory frugal, Taskix does pretty much the same thing while using just 70k.
There's nothing to install. Just download and unzip Taskix, and click on the exe file. Then drag and drop to your heart's delight. If you want to disable Taskix, click again and select the "Deactivate" button.

The most important feature of Taskbar Shuffle (next to the ability to simply rearrange the task bar, of course) is the ability to group similar windows together, but prevent them from collapsing into a single button. That means I don't have to click twice and look through a menu to find my window.
Taskix can't do this, as far as I can tell, so I think I'll stay with the latest version of Taskbar Shuffle. Nice tip for those who are memory-frugal, but those that are that efficiency-obsessed should balance their need to save a few hundred kilobytes of memory with the loss of efficiency that more clicks will generate.
