    How to pin shortcut to start menu.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    As per the description, I understand that you would like to know how to pin short cut to start menu.

    I would suggest you to refer to the article given below if you are using Windows 7.

    Pin a program to the Start menu

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Pin-a-program-to-the-Start-menu

    And if you are using Windows 10 then I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below.

    Pin apps to Start

    Pin the apps you use most often to the Start menu. Here's how:

    • Go to Start > All Apps.
    • Press and hold (or right-click) an app.
    • Select Pin to Start.




    Hope this helps. Please let us know the results. We will be happy to assist you further.

    What can you pin to start menu?


    So what exactly can be pinned to start menu in Win10?
    • Applications, obviously,
    • Folders,
    • Settings from modern Settings App,
    • Settings from Control Panel,
    • Websites, through Edge menu,
    • Websites, by creating "application view" in IE11,
    • OneNote notes and notebooks through modern app

    Anything else? I'm thinking files, shortcuts, emails, contacts etc.

    I've seen there were hacks to pin files in Win8.1, didn't try them yet. Is there any way to pin files without hacks? When I drag a file over start icon I get a "pin to start menu" tooltip, but can't actually do that.

    Can you pin the Start Menu to a different Montior

    Where do you find the list of items pinned to the start menu?

    A reasonable 'guess' following a couple of simple experiments suggests the registry:

    Can you pin the Start Menu to a different Montior [​IMG]

    - note the name there.

    - unless the data is held where access is restricted e.g. the WindowsApps folder.
