    Can’t unpin or remove program icons from Windows 10 Taskbar

    Cannot unpin an Excel file from the Taskbar

    Long ago I pinned an Excel file to the Windows 10 taskbar. This means that if I right click on the Excel icon, which is also pinned to the taskbar, a pop-up list of file names appears with the pinned file at the top.

    The pinned file has an "Unpin from this list" icon beside it. If I click on the unpin icon, nothing happens. I tried pinning another Excel file to the taskbar and was able to unpin it. The problem seems to affect only this one file, pinned long ago.

    I have Googled and tried many posts for removing a pinned item (file, not an app) from the taskbar. None of them have worked.

    How can I unpin this Excel file?

    Thanks!
