If you have a mouse, hover over an application open in the taskbar. Note: It has to be an OPEN aplication. Now click down the scroll wheel. It opens the application without right clicking and selecting it again! Does anyone else know about this? I have been using Windows 7 since 2010 and never noticed this.
Thanks, CoreyTech.

Even if the app isn't open but it is pinned to the Taskbar, clicking on it with the center mouse button also opens it.
