How do I bind the current version of Eclipse Mars to the Windows taskbar?

The problem I had with previous versions of Eclipse was that if I bound the EXE to my Windows taskbar, there would be two icons. Alternatively, I could bind the executable EXE to the taskbar and that would work fine.

Now that Eclipse Mars is out, it looks like it doesn't work anymore. Right-clicking on the running Mars version does not bring up the Pin to Taskbar option. Is there something I'm missing or some other solution for binding Mars to the Windows taskbar?

In this version, I had to add the -vm argument to the very top of my eclipse.ini file.

-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\[jdk version]\bin


This is strange as I shouldn't have done this before, however; it seems like others have had to do this in the past with other versions of Eclipse.
