Computer to taskbar? How?

[SHUTRcz]

Hi I want add computer shortcut to taskbar. How can I do it?

Hello Shutrcz..

It should have been easier, and if someone knows an easier way, please let us know.

Here's How:

1. Right click on the desktop and create a new shortcut. Enter this at the shortcut path:
C:\Windows\explorer.exe shell:MyComputerFolder
2. Right click the shortcut you just created and choose "Pin to Taskbar".
3. You're done

Hope it helps

I must be missing something because the shortcut exists and works from within the shell:user pinned \taskbar explorer pane, but no icon appears on the taskbar itself after log off/on.

Thanks. Didn't know that.

Indeed, it seems placing a shortcut in the user pinned folder isn't enough. However, this way you can now right-click the shortcut and choose in to Taskbar. Then it appears. Thanks, edited the post above as well
