Put a Mac-like Dock in Windows Vista or XP

By Rich on March 6, 2008 (62 Comments)

Ever seen OS X running on a Mac and though to yourself: “I wish my windows computer looked like that?” Well it can, and in this guide I will show you how.

This will work with Windows Vista or XP.

Download ObjectDock here. Go to the page and click the “Free Download” button.
Install ObjectDock on to your computer.
Once installed, launch ObjectDock (if it hasn’t already).

ObjectDock is very easy to use and there is a lot of support out there for this free product.

Where did I get all those cool icons from?

I have put together a that you should start with.
Go back to the ObjectDock website and click “Get More Icons” on the navigation menu. Here you may download some great looking icons.

Where can I get more support for this program?

Go back to the ObjectDock website and click “Forums”

I have more questions and I can’t find the answer.

Leave a comment/click the contact link and we will do our best to help you.
