    hmm... seems fixed now but wtf ... very weird. I can now pin stuff there ... also made quick launch now thx to ure guides :) ty for that, i tought they removed that one.

    Still the program i wanted in taskbar cant pin i dunno, its Windows Classic mediaplayer HomeCinema, from k-lite codec (mplayerc) , cant pin, did shrtcut to desk, dosnt work, from program folder. Anyway i got it on quick launch .

    I Did a fix with windows 7 Manager to all Customizations. Recent programs now show.

    gl i consider problem solved ...not 100% but more of a workaround for mplayerc :)

    Just for snickers and grins, try right click on the quicklaunch shortcut and see if pin to taskbar is available. Doing this repaired some problems I was having with pinned icons on the taskbar. I could then delete the quicklaunch shortcuts.
