I've got a very odd question... I used to keep FPS Reloader shortcut on my bottom taskbar on Windows 7, but noticed that I'm unable to do the same with Game Guru? I've experienced this issue with a couple Steam products :/

Anyone know a solution?

Make sure the taskbar is unlocked.

Then then you should be able to drag the icon there holding the shift key to create a shortcut to the tool bar.

Yea, that's my story and I am sticking to it.

Let me know if I am wrong.

Teabone, you may be trying to move the shortcut created by Steam when you installed. You should instead make yourself a standard Windows shortcut to the actual executable of GameGuru.

Browse your disk to the directory containing the GameGuru.exe, rightclick and 'Pin to Taskbar' should do it.

The reason: Steam creates shortcuts based on the 'steam://rungameid/xxxx' URL syntax. This works for Steam, but the Windows taskbar does not accept that type of shortcut to be 'pinned'.
