    'Pin to taskbar' Folder and Drive in Windows 10

    Were you using this Tutorial: 'Pin to taskbar' Folder and Drive in Windows 10 ?

    I would check what you have done.
    Right-mouse click on the pinned Taskbar Item, and Right-mouse click again on the listed item. Select Properties from the drop-down list.
    In Properties, check the Target field. Does it say explorer "<path>", or similar? <Path> is the destination to your desired folder.

    Hello Mike, and welcome to Ten Forums. How to pin a drive/folder to the taskbar? :)

    This tutorial is for pinning folders to the taskbar instead though.

    The limit is based on your screen resolution for what will show in the jump list without having to scroll.

    Another alternative, is to add a new folder as toolbar on your taskbar, then add shortcuts of folders to the new folder to have them show in the toolbar's menu.
