How do you make a keyboard shortcut for the quick launch buttons? Let's say I have a Internet Explorer shortcut on my desktop. If I right click it and go to properties and click on the shortcuts tab, I can assign a keyboard key to activate that shortcut. So let's say I use the letter E. Then I can hit CTRL + ALT + E and Internet Explorer will launch. Well as soon as I put that desktop shortcut into the quick launch icons, the keyboard shortcut doesn't work anymore :cry: Anyone know how to assign keyboard shortcuts to the quick launch icons?

Works for me in Vista 32. I think you have a driver or program that does keyboard shortcuts or you have a conflict. You must be on desktop for this to work.
