  1. How do you move pinned items up and down on Windows 10?


    So, I have a lot of important stuff on my taskbar. Outlook mail, task manager, etc. When I tried moving my pinned items up and down, the PC wouldn't allow it. I had 2 theories in mind.1. Unpin all items and then open up the apps and pin again in the desired order. Pain.2. This might be a glitch for Windows 10, but if you open up task manager, the taskbar would have a slot short, something like that. Make sure that you have Windows upgraded, I am not sure for older versions. Move your app to the very left on whatever row/column that is under the 1st. Close task manager and hit the up arrow to w

  3. Moving pinned items on Windows 10 taskbar

    Thanks for your reply.

    Just in case this was a result of a poor description of the problem by me, I will explain in detail.

    I have Excel permanently pinned to the taskbar. When I right click the Excel tile, the context menu shows a list of Pinned items at the top and Recent items below that. I believe these are called jump lists.

    When I hover over an item on the Pinned list a push pin (), overlaid with a no entry sign (), is displayed to the right of the item.

    I can click on the pin to unpin it from the pinned list.

    Under Windows 7, I was able to left click on an item in the pinned list and drag it up or down to a different position in the list. This drag and drop functionality has never worked for me under Windows 10. As I noted in my original post,
    the only way to resequence pinned items it to unpin all items then repin in the desired sequence.

    Do you know if the drag/drop functionality will be re-introduced in the Windows 10 anniversary update?

    How do you move pinned items up and down on Windows 10?

    File Explorer Quick Access trouble.. Cannot pin items

    File Explorer is behaving weird - I cannot pin items to Quick Access. When I pin items they won't appear to QA. Also when dragging items to QA nothing happens and there's a small icon indicating that is not possible.

    I did some "tweaks" with Ultimate Windows Tweaker 4.5 but I haven't found a setting there that could of made QA to not function.

    I did some steps as remedy that I found with Google but those didn't help.

    Any suggestions?
