Yeah, it's still around too.
It resides in C:\Users\{yourmoniker}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
It's got the 3 default shortcuts in it: 'IE', 'Show Desktop' and the old 'Flip 3D', which doesn't work! From there you add your own shortcuts then launch it as a 'New Toolbar' from the taskbar right click menu.
Hint: When you want to pin apps to QuickLaunch, in the Metro interface, right click on the app and then Open File Location. If you have a suite of apps like Office, all of them will be listed and you can pin them to QL. Of course, you can always use File Explorer and look for them that way too.
