Hello Nisko,

You would basically need to create a shortcut to the folder in the Quick Launch folder to have it show up on the taskbar in Quick Launch.

If you like, the tutorial below will add a Send to -> Quick Launch context menu option to make it easy to add items to Quick Launch.

Sorry, not what I expected. How do I undo what I did?
