Windows 10: application keeps disappearing from my taskbar

I have pinned a .exe file to my taskbar and it seems like every time I log on and off my computer and try to launch it from the taskbar it says the file has been moved or changed, I then have to launch it from the folder it is in, seems like the app's cache is also deleted when this happens. It used to be fine, but a few months ago it started doing this.

the app in question is a modded version of the dolphin emulator (slippi to be precise), but I couldn't find anyone else with the problem, so i rather suspect it is windows that is being faulty.

I think you just skipped a step - not right clicking on the program name to get to the properties option

I thought that's what you meant, however, nothing like what in your example picture came up when I did what you said to do. All I got was this...





Or this in a blank spot...





Additionally, these programs aren't pinned to the Taskbar, if that makes any difference.
