The right substitute for Vista/XP like Quick Launch shortcut is to make the link pinned to the taskbar (IMO).
It appears as simple as putting the shortcut in User Pinned\TaskBar subfolder of Quick Launch folder in Windows 7. <!-- Quick Launch per-user folder --> <Directory Id="QL1" SourceName="Application Data"> <Directory Id="QL2" Name="Microsoft"> <Directory Id="QL3" Name="Internet Explorer"> <Directory Id="QL4" Name="Quick Launch" /> <Directory Id="QL5" Name="User Pinned" /> <Directory Id="QL6" Name="TaskBar" /> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> </Directory> Now, I can condition the installation of the component containing the Shortcut element. When OS is Windows 7 shortcut gets created in QL6 directory, otherwise in QL4. Since this would unnecessarily create User Pinned\TaskBar folders on Vista and XP, does anybody know if there is a more elegant way to accomplish the same goal?
