How to Change Titles in the Taskbar With MFC

By Technology Last updated Tuesday, May/07/2024

1). Right-click the "C" file that contains your program code. Select "Open With." If you have a third-party application you use to program your C applications, double-click it in the list of programs. Otherwise, you can use a Windows text editor, such as "Notepad." Double-click your desired program to open the code file.
2). Scroll down to the location of the file where you want to edit the window text. Most programmers place the window text in the "Windows_Load" function.
3). Type the following code in your file:

void CMainFrame::SetAppName(LPCTSTR Title) {

m_strTitle = "My Title";

}

Replace "My Title" with your own taskbar title.
4). Click the "Save" button in your code editor. If you are using Notepad, click "File" and click "Save" to save your changes.
