I want to be able to launch a .bat file I've written from the task bar.
I've successfully created the shortcut and have located it in Explorer. However, Windows doesn't do anything when I drag the shortcut to the task bar, and it doesn't display "task bar" as a destination in the "Send To" menu.
Is this a new restriction, or is it possible to have a bat launcher on the task bar?
Steps to reproduce:
- Create a .bat file on the desktop (contents don't matter).
- Create a shortcut to that .bat file.
- Try to drag the shortcut to the task bar from Explorer.
- Right-click the shortcut and look in vain for some way of making it launchable from the task bar.
