Since I started using Windows 7 a few months ago, I like the feature that you
only have to single click on items pinned to the taskbar. I have numerous
folders set up with programs that are similar, i.e. Graphics, Multimedia, Games,
etc. When I open the folder I have to double click it, and to open, say, a game,
I have to double click it. I was wondering if there's a setting that lets you
assign a sungle click to open folders and programs? Thanks.

Yes. On Windows Explorer/Computer, go to Tools | Folder Options. It's
on the General tab.
