Windows 7 hotbar.

Anyone have an idea how to set the programs on your hotbar to open only on double-click?

Getting rather annoyed when i misclick something like EVE online and it launches, instead of clicking firefox.

Yeah, but i've got plenty of programs that launch fullscreen, so there's always some program next to some other program

Less watching, dl'ing, making pr0n whilst gaming Toht. Should clear some space.

It's not a space problem, the icons are next to eachother no matter what

Just googled, would this be it?

1. Click Start > Control Panel.

2. Open Folders.

3. Check the option for Single click to open an item to enable single-click to open items. Check Double-click to open item to disable the single-click feature.

NAh that's for folder opening, doesn't affect the hotbar icons. Kinda why i asked cause i couldn't find it online either

Got to admit, clicking something and it launched Eve Online would piss me off too

Your best bet would be to ask in Techie Discussion if you haven't already. Though it sounds like a registry jobbie to me and having never used Windows 7 I wouldn't have a clue where the values for the hotbar are located.

Install Kubuntu 10.10 en run everything with wine. Problem solved.

Take it off the hotbar and make a desktop shortcut. Hotbar is stuff you want to launch often, quickly.

Yeah figured as much. Useless selective options crap
