When doing a scandisk, having the QuickLaunch Bar disabled reduces the number of (unwanted) restarts. I KNOW how to disable QuickLaunch Bar using the mouse, but would like to know if it can be done with keystrokes. If I find out which key-strokes, I’ll be able to incorporate the disablement of QuickLaunch Bat into the batchfile that prepares the PC for Scandisk.
