A taskbar is a graphical user interface element in operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows, that displays running applications, open windows, and system notifications.

The taskbar also shows the system clock, system tray icons, and the Start menu, which allows users to access programs and features installed on their computer.

The taskbar is a fundamental element of the Windows desktop, and its efficient use can improve productivity and organization.
