Get the Flip3D Button Back On The Taskbar


This is a quick tip for those of you who miss the Flip3D button on the Taskbar.

You can also enable Flip3D by holding the Winkey and tapping tab

You can also download a small yet useful app called WinFlog Extreme, you can enable Flip3D by holding down the middle mouse button.


1. Right click on the desktop, and create a new shortcut.

That's all folks :)
 
Thank you for sharing this.

You might be interested about this too.

Hold Ctrl + WinKey + Tab, its activates Flip3D, then you can switch using the arrow keys.
 
To me, this was one of those features you try and go "Oh, that's cool" then never use it again. Thanks for the guide though!
