    Can't customize windows taskbar as i could


    This problem is related to adding opened windows/programmes in the taskbar.

    So, I added "My Computer", "My Documents", "Recycle Bin", etc, all in the taskbar. They all regrouped into one single icon in the taskbar - "Windows Explorer" icon.
    Though, I was able to right click on it and see all the folders I had added to the taskbar (those i said before).

    Thing is: now I can't.

    I would appreciate if you could help me figure this out. I hope I've been clear about my problem.

    Sincere thanks, Tomás

    Non of your suggestions worked... I can't singly pin either User Files or Recycle Bin or any other Document Folder, once I pin one of them, they're all already pinned as Windows Explorer.

    Actually, I think this didn't use to happen.

    Thanks for the suggestions though.

    Haha! Great news, I made it!

    All I had to do was Drag all the icons from the folders I wanted pinned and so no i can right click on the Windows Explorer icon and they all show up.

    Thanks for the help, you kind of led me to the solution!
