I want my taskbar to have two rows for running programs. I increase the size then lock the taskbar and it's fine. But every time I log back on, it's reverted to single/default size. Why?

Try this - Right Click on Desktop and choose Properties>Desktop>Customise Desktop.

Fixed it. Something to do with themes - I reset my theme and re-customised and now it seems ok.

Hey, I had the same problem with the taskbar settings not saving. It is indeed a problem with the themes, but just to set the record straight, you need to open display properties and SAVE the current theme. It should say "something (Modified)". Once I saved the theme, it was perfectly fine.
