    adding folder and drive shortcuts to task bar


    On XP, I would put shortcuts to my different hard drives and folders on the taskbar for quick access. Seems like Windows 7 task bar doesn't let me do this and only allows me to put program files only (yes task bar is unlocked).

    is there a way to add hard drive and folder short cuts?

    Quicklaunch will allow this.

    Quick Launch - Enable or Disable
