Hi Donaldtbyrd,

Yes, you can do this. It is not so difficult.

You have to edit the Rainmeter (.ini file) by using some codes.

But one thing is very important, while editing you have to exit from the Rainmeter.

Here is a link which will show you a tutorial about the procedure

Thanks.

Yes it is possible. You can do it as following the comment/solution above.

But just in case you get trouble doing it, here’s an alternative that would look like it. Show the icons and others on the Rain Meter taskbar.

Start button and show icons on the taskbar. This is another possible way you want.

Here,you will not need to create a program.

I hope this help you.

Thanks for asking here at techyv.com
