Addon is not loaded on "Pinned Site Shortcut"

Hi,
When creating a "Pinned Site Shortcut" in windows 7 (by dragging the favicon of any web site to the desktop) and then clicking on it, a new IE instance is started but the adx addon is not loaded (although on "manage addons" the addon is enabled and loaded).

Do you know this bug? and how can we solve it?

Thanks,
Omri

Hi Omri,

I have just tested a newly created add-on project against Internet Explorer 9. You are right, IE add-ons are not loaded if you run a pinned site shortcut created by Internet Explorer. But, if you create a shortcut using Firefox, IE add-ins are loaded like a charm. It looks like Internet Explorer writes some info to the shortcut file (not to load add-ons when running a shortcut). So, you can create pinned site shortcuts using Firefox as a workaround ;-)
