Taskbar

                 The long bar at the bottom of the desktop is called the  taskbar. It helps to
                 manage and switch between different active programs and open windows by

                 clicking their respective buttons. We can switch between these programs by
                 clicking their buttons on the taskbar. It also contains the Start Button, Opened
                 programs and Clock.

                 It is known as the gateway to Windows and its programs. It opens the
                 Start menu when clicked.

                 Opened Programs

                 Opened  programs  are  those currently  running  and are

                 represented as buttons on the taskbar. Additionally, the
                 taskbar contains shortcuts to quickly access and open various programs.

                 Clock

                 On the right side of the taskbar, the current date and time are displayed.
                 Even when the computer is switched off, your computer maintains the

                 correct date and time automatically with the help of a small internal
                 battery.
