help me find taskbarex 64 bit
« on: December 12, 2024, 04:47 AM »
Hello All

i need the 64 bit version of taskbarex
its selling points are is very small, around 300kb
helps rearrange taskbar items and even detach taskbar buttons

i have seen some alternatives,
but smallest i found yet is 3mb and does less

i would prefer the zip version of taskbarex,
but won't say no to installer

or even source code
if it can be easily compiled
to working 64 bit version
already compiled is even better
as it may save me some headaches
because i am not a programmer

so far, i have found the 32bit version
but is useless
as it only starts in compatibility mode
and does nothing else


i could not find a live link for source code
nor for 64 bit version,
the developer site and emails are inactive
site was tomo.panicode.com
emails i found were panicode and hotmail
but even the hotmail is unreachable

i tried asking for it in one of the old forum posts
where it was discussed, but is unknown if anyone will see my reply there

perhaps some users here still have the 64bit version?
or they have better search skills to find some live mirror?

thank you

I don't think there ever was a 64-bit version, or any 32 bit version that worked with anything other than WinXP.

I have a copy of StExBar but I don't know if it's 64bit.  I used to use it on XP.

And then there is also the issue that nearly all Taskbar related tools no longer work with the completely rebuilt (and severely broken) Windows 11 taskbar :huh:

Stexbar has a 64bit version too
