You can add your own items to any of the desktop toolbars (except the Address Bar) by simply dragging them from another location. An 'item' on a toolbar is basically a shortcut to something else, and the general rule is that if you can put a shortcut to something on the Win 95 desktop, then you can put a shortcut to it on a toolbar as well.

To place a shortcut to an application (program) on a toolbar, open the folder where it's stored, and drag it onto the toolbar. Win 95 automatically creates a shortcut to the program. Alternatively you can drag an existing shortcut onto the toolbar, and Win 95 makes a copy of the shortcut (Tip - the Start Bar Programs menu folder and its sub-folders are full of shortcuts. To open the folder, right-click on the Start Button and choose Open from the pop-up menu).

To place a shortcut to a disk folder on a toolbar, open a browse window (or Windows Explorer), find the folder, then drag it onto the toolbar. Be careful when you're doing this, as dragging a folder to the wrong place on the Task Bar (i.e. not the part of it occupied by the toolbar) will make Win 95 open a new custom toolbar containing links to the folder's contents (click here for more details on creating custom toolbars) Tip - to avoid this problem, drag the toolbar out onto the desktop before dragging items onto it.

To place a shortcut to a Web page on a toolbar, open the page in the IE browser and drag the current page icon onto the toolbar. To delete an item from a toolbar, right-click on its button and choose Delete from the pop-up menu.
