I was trying to post a link in another thread that would lead the person to a site to help him try and get the Classic Win 10 Taskbar Right Click options. If I pasted this https://www.askvg.com/tip-restore-w...-in-windows-11-along-with-classic-start-menu/ it would take him to it.

I wanted to make it be more explicit so I looked up how to use BBC Code, which I thought this site allows but when I posted this Classic Taskbar Settings it displayed the words and they were underlined indicating a link. Hopefully that show the same here. Only when clicking on it, it went to a page that said"Access Denied."


[ url=https://www.askvg.com/tip-restore-w...in-windows-11-along-with-classic-start-menu// ]Classic Taskbar Settings[/url]

Did I use incorrect syntax or does this forum not allow BBC Code? If it is allowed, why then the "Access Denied" message? The code I used is above this paragraph with added spaces so it can be seen and not display Classic Taskbar Settings.

    UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to lid hinges starting to break up this laptop has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.

    I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.

    Info for 2021-2026:
    fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

When copying links and other 'code snippets' it is a good idea to paste them into a plain text app (Notepad for example) to see exactly what characters are there and review/ change before use.
Sometimes people copy then paste direct into Command, PowerShell or Terminal and the code they copied differs from the code displayed by the web site/ code box, which can lead to undesired results.
