17th September 2010 - Customization, door2windows Freewares, Downloads, Windows, Windows 7

Windows 7 Taskbar Items Pinner is a freeware from door2windows that allows you to pin files, folders & web pages to your Windows 7 taskbar. Normally, the Pin to Taskbar option only works with EXE files but this tool enables you to pin any file of any extension, any folder & even web pages.

How to use:

Just run the tool, and select the pre-defined items that you want to pin. It will pin them instantly.

If you want to pin a custom file/folder, then follow the steps below:

  1. Click on the button near Path and select File if you want to pin a file or select Folder if you want to pin a folder.

  2. Click on the button near Icon and select the icon of the file or folder.
  3. If you want to change the icon no, just type your desired icon no in the textbox before the button.

  4. Click Add Item.

If you want to pin a webpage, then follow the steps below:

  1. Type the full path of the webpage in the textbox near Path.
  2. Click on the button near Icon and select the icon of the file or folder.
  3. If you want to change the icon no, just type your desired icon no in the textbox before the button.

  4. Click Add Item.

It will now pin the webpage.

Command Line Usage

<Name> <IconFile> <IconNo> <Path>
For example : door2windows shell32.dll 14 http://www.door2windows.com/
If you want to ask for the name then use &ask& <IconFile> <IconNo> <Path>

    The correct spanish strings are:

    Pin to Taskbar= “Anclar a la barra de tareas”
    Unpin from Taskbar= “Desanclar de la barra de tareas”

    although it says it should be compatible with german it’s not working for me… :
    Here is the translation for the Strings if you got something wrong:

    Pin To Taskbar in german: “An Taskleiste anheften”
    for unpinning: “Von Taskleiste lösen”

    I have exactly the same issue. For my personal account (with admin rights), the Taskbar item Pinner works fine. However for the other non-admin accouts on the machine it doesn’t.

    Strangely, using “run as administrator” and providing an admin user password doesn’t work, you have to give the current user admin rights for TIP to work. This is unfortunate, because adding and then removing admin rights from multiple users just to set up the taskbar is a rather laborious exercise.

     Is there a way to modify the spacing of pinned apps in w7′s taskbar? They are so far aprat that three icons take the space sufficient for four.

    You’ve already made an app top modify windows’ windows close button size – can you perhaps do one for the taskbar pinned apps spacing?

    Hi, in the Italian version 64 bit it doesn’t work.
    The reason is the 64 bit version or the italian strings?
    I see that one of the first comments, one year ago, is about the Italian version,
    Rafix83 gave you the italian strings, but these are wrong!
    The right italian strings are:

    Pin to taskbar = Aggiungi alla barra delle applicazioniUnpin = Rimuovi dalla barra delle applicazioni 

    These are the correct strings we can read when we right-click over the .exe files in the context menu.

    Pin to taskbar = Aggiungi questo programma alla barra delle applicazioni
    Unpin = Rimuovi questo programma dalla barra delle applicazioni  

    These are the strings we can read when we right-click programs on the bar (strings besides the pin icon).

    I guess the version usefull for your program is the first I gave, the short version that appear in the context menu.

    However the strings gave by Rafix84 in italian are definitely wrong in any case, at lest is missig “delle” between “barra” and “applicazioni”

    I find this program very usefull, but unfortunately now it doesn’t work yet in italian version of Windows 7.
