What is the Taskbar?

The taskbar is used to change manage multiple tasks (ie. programs, files,...) at the same time. This means I can work in a Word document then an Excel one, then a Powerpoint file without ever having to close any of the programs. The important part is I can easily transfer information from one program to another by using functions like copy and paste.

Get familiar with your taskbar because it will always show the programs / files that are currently open. I am not going to overwhelm you with the technical terms since they are more or less irrelevant at this point. The concept is the important part. The taskbar is used to manage what you are currently working on.

How do I use the taskbar?
Easy! To change to a different program / file that is open, simply click on its name at the bottom.
