How To Add Quick Launch Bar to the Taskbar in Windows 7
By default Quick Launch is disabled in Windows 7.
You should note that the new Windows 7 taskbar allows you to dock items to the taskbar, combining the features of both the normal taskbar as well as the Quick Launch.

Adding the Quick Launch Bar Back to Windows 7
To add the toolbar back, right-click on an open area of the taskbar, and choose Toolbars \ New Toolbar from the menu. Also unlock the taskbar at this point.
paste the following path into the location bar:
%appdata%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
Make sure that the location bar shows the full path, like the next screenshot, before you choose the “Select Folder” button.
You will notice the Quick Launch toolbar on the taskbar, but it’s all the way over on the right, so you’ll want to click on the dotted lines and then drag the toolbar all the way to the left (which is slightly tricky sometimes). Note that you’ll need to right-click and unlock the taskbar before you can move the toolbar.
Now it’s over on the left. Adjust the regular taskbar toolbar to be closer to the left; use the dotted lines to drag it over as well.
Right-click on the dotted lines and uncheck “Show Text” as well as “Show Title” from the menu.
Check the “Lock the taskbar” again.
So there you have the Quick Launch Bar.
