TaskbarX and Windows Taskbar Keyboard Shortcuts

Keep Windows taskbar navigation usable with centered icons.

Quick answer

Keep Windows taskbar navigation usable with centered icons. This walkthrough describes the practical sequence for the original TaskbarX project, rather than promising that every option works on every Windows release.

Steps for this task

  1. Use Win+number to launch or switch to pinned taskbar apps.
  2. Try Win+T to focus taskbar items.
  3. Open Start with the Windows key even if visual buttons change.
  4. Test shortcuts after adjusting TaskbarX positioning.

How to confirm the result

Keyboard navigation continues independently of icon centering. For a positioning or animation change, inspect the taskbar before and after opening or closing a normal app window. For a startup or file problem, check the executable location and the Windows Task Scheduler entry.

Compatibility and recovery

These are Windows shortcuts, not shortcuts implemented by TaskbarX.

TaskbarX is primarily a Windows 10 utility. If a feature is absent or unsupported, close TaskbarX, remove any unwanted scheduled launch task, and return to the normal Windows taskbar rather than installing undocumented patches.
