Ever thought of making folders inside your QuickLaunch folder to stay organized ?

But yes, I know the feeling, did that as well way-way-way back, drag the quicklaunch out of the toolbar and have a row of nicely arranged icons all across the screen .. but Windows has the habit of re- arranging alphabetically as well, after numerous times of putting icons back to where I wanted them I gave up on that .. I now use RightClick by Stardock which replaces the usual rightclickmenu on your desktop with a highly configurable (and skinable) menu for all kinds of shortcuts, I have my mentioned folders in my Quicklaunch menu, shortcuts to folders I open frequently in the main menu and I can browse to everything on my PC, including external drives and network in treeview in a matter of seconds

Google Desktop re-arranges my Quick Launch Toolbar ALPHABETICALLY without my express permission to do so. I want to know why the Developer Group think they have the RIGHT to re-arrange a user's QLT without asking the user if GD can. To me, this is an unpardonable liberty and the reason why I have totally removed ALL Google Desktop software from my computer.

I had my QLT that spans the width of my 17" monitor set at 1024x768 resolution carefully arranged and grouped by function, so that I have all my "tools" (single click icons) together for any particular function with which I am working. Now I have to waste my time undoing what GD took the liberty of re-arranging, and fortunately for the Developer Group I am so angry that I am at a loss to express myself sufficiently eloquently to put it in writing.
