Windows 7 tip: Drag a file to taskbar to open the file

[Image]
When you try to drop files on quick launch bar in windows 7 instead of opening the file, you will be prompted to pin the file to taskbar.

What you need to do : hold down the Shift key while dragging the file to the taskbar button, and it will change to “Open with Application”

and thus you can open the file with the application to which you dragged the file to.
