    How to make 3-D Taskbar Vista look in Windows 7

    Currently, I am using Microsoft windows Vista on my 3 computers and find irresistible of the look of the AERO themes. I particularly like the 3 dimensional look and feel of the taskbar as well as the toolbar. Afterwards formatted my computer and installed new windows 7 operating system in my computer though during testing the MS-Windows 7 beta, I cannot discover a method to achieve this same 3 dimensional appearance on computer. It seems very flat appearance on my computer so did not like that. I require this as soon as possible so anyone has the idea how to do this trick do I require installing special software for that. Or is there an optional setting that will permit me to acquire that same taskbar/toolbar look on windows 7 operating system?

    Like nearly all of what Windows 7 hold to the table, though there's one thing I absolutely don't like: the new taskbar. Particularly, I fail to spot the text labels that go jointly with each running program. Without them, it takes me an extra second or two to shape out. luckily, there's an easy way to make the Windows 7 toolbar look a lot additional like the one in 3-D Vista the procedure is follows:
    1. Right-click on any open region of the toolbar and select the Properties option.
    2. Select the Taskbar buttons demolish and select Never combine.
    3. Optional: If you actually desire a additional Microsoft Vista/XP-like taskbar, make sure the Use small icons box. Me, I akin to the bigger icons.
    4. Select on “Apply” and then select OK and you're done!
