Windows 10: Add the possibillity to pin icons from desktop to taskbar with dragging in Windows 11.

Hello!I would be glad if you could add the possibility to add items to the taskbar by dragging them. Currently, it is impossible to do that in a such way see the picture below. Instead, I should use right-click - > show more options, and only after that, I will be able to pin an icon to the taskbar. It is VERY inconvenient for users and I even googled how to pin icons to the taskbar. Please, fix it!

Hi,

To assist you further, let me ask.

• 
  When you say “Trying to move desktop icon to the task bar”, you mean pin the excel workbook to the task bar?
  
• what exactly when you try to stick the excel file to the taskbar?

If you are trying to pin the excel workbook to the taskbar.

Follow the steps below.

• 
  Click on the start menu, select the icon and right-click on the icon.

  From the list, select pin it to taskbar or pin it to start.
  

Also, you can drag the icon from the desktop and drop on the task bar.

I hope the information is helpful and if the issue still persists, we’ll be glad to assists you.
