I need help with Winamp because I can't dock it onto my taskbar.

In order to be able to dock it, I need to check it here:

Right?
But it's not there, as you can see.
And if I try to create new toolbar, I can only select the entire Winamp folder, not the app itself.

If I try to dock it WITHOUT it getting checked on the taskbar menu, it looks like this:

There's probably a very simple explaination, and I'm just being stupid. =[
Any help would be awsome.

I don't think you can dock Winamp.
Which is why I stopped using it.

& about "In order to dock it, I need to check it here" , it says Windows Media Player, lern2raed.

Lol wow.
You can't be serious right now, it clearly says "But it's not there, as you can see".
L2Reed?

Another thing, why would the option be in the winamp menu if it's unusable?

Edit: Still requesting help.

it can go into a thing where it looks like a thin bar
but it doesn't actually "dock" into the task bar

Yes I know it can turn into a thin bar.
But in the winamp menu (shown in the second picture) there is a 'Docked Toolbar' option which is greyed out.

Appreciate your help though.

Edit: Does anyone else know a way? Or is it 100% true that it CANNOT be docked onto the taskbar?

No problemo <33 I've become very minimalist lately. So I had to do this with my desktop when I was messing around with samuraize and bblean and all those other desktop shell replacements.

*Currently I'm using BBClean*
