Quick Launch in Windows 7

Just like in Windows XP you can also have a Quick Launch function in Window 7, you just need to enable it.

1.
 

Right click the Taskbar, then click Toolbars and New toolbar.

 
 
2.
 

In the Folder input box enter %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

Or rather copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) it.

And click Select folder or press
Enter.

 
 
3.
 

Quick Launch  should have appeared in your taskbar. Click the >> to see the shortcuts. And click the shortcut to open the application you want.

 
 
4.
 

You can easily add more shortcuts by simply dragging and dropping the application icons onto the >> next to Quick Launch (see picture)

I added the Mozilla Firefox and it appeared on the top.

 
 
6.
 

If you want to delete a shortcut from your Quick Launch, just open the Quick Launch, right click the application you no longer want in there and click Delete.

You're only going to delete the shortcut of the application, don't worry.

Click Yes to confirm.

I deleted Switch between windows and as you can see it's no longer in there.

 
 
9.
 

If you want to change the order of your shortcuts, just drag and drop it to the place where you want it.

I want Google Chrome on the very top, so I dragged it and dropped it to the top position. (see picture)

Google Chrome is now on top.
