131 Getting to Know Windows Millennium Edition Lesson 1: Exploring the desktop Shortcut tray The shortcut tray displays icons of tasks or programs. These icons function much like the desktop icons, but are easily accessible even when the desktop is covered with open windows. To activate a task or program, click the appropriate shortcut tray icon. To add an icon to the shortcut tray, drag it to the shortcut tray. Taskbar Each time you open a program, a button associated with that program appears on the taskbar. With some programs, a button appears on the taskbar for each document or window you open. You can use these buttons to quickly switch between the programs or windows. To make a program or window active, click the associated button. System tray The system tray displays icons of tasks or programs that run continuously in the background. To learn more about each task, position the cursor over the icon for a few moments and a short description of the task appears. Typical tasks in the system tray are current time, power usage mode, and speaker volume. To activate a specific task, double-click the appropriate system tray icon. Desktop background When you first set up your computer, the background image (also called "wallpaper") on the desktop is the Toshiba choose freedom™ background image.
