  1. Why can I no longer pin a website to the taskbar?!


    Why can I no longer pin a website to the taskbar?! I can only install Youtube for example as an app, however I want to pin the edge browser website to the taskbar!


    Also why can I not drag app icons to the desktop? Why is Windows 10 forever not giving me what I need?

    :)

    Pinning websites

    For some reason I can no longer pin any websites. I go on to a website and pin it to the taskbar, nothing happens it just goes to edge. Why is this?

  3. Pinning "Settings" to the Taskbar

    I've tried both suggestions. But thanks to your(?) earlier post, I do have an icon pinned to the taskbar for settings.

    Both were my posts Why can I no longer pin a website to the taskbar?! :) In fact, at first I forgot to post the usual steps to pin Settings to taskbar, and rather complicated (which I thought) by suggesting you create a shortcut. Hence the 2nd post. Anyway, glad the shortcut method helped.

    Why can I no longer pin a website to the taskbar?!

    Getting Color Management onto the taskbar and...?


    Hey Edwin, thanks, but let me make sure I got this all right. It seems that only Color Management can be pinned to the task bar...Right? Whereas, the website can only be pinned to the Jump List, and not to the taskbar...Right? If so, good enough as this will still reduce the number of steps needed to change my monitor's color settings.
