    Pinned excel/word start menu shortcuts not working

    Hi Coro123, and welcome to Tenforums!

    In Windows 10, I found the most practical way to quick access certain documents is via context menu.

    Quickest is if you pin Word (not a document) to Taskbar, and by right click on it you have a list of documents. You can pin any document in list - it will appear on the top and stay there.

    It is the same for Start menu. Right click on Word tile it will give you context menu with recent files

    About Pin to start in contect menu, here are tutorials by Brink. You can ask him there too *Wink

    Unable to Pin a File to Start Menu App

    Pinning files to an app's Start Menu icon seems to be an ongoing OS problem in Win 10, MS Office 365.

    I have MS Office 365 installed and updated. The apps are all on the Start Menu, Word and Excel are pinned there. When I right-click on the Word app icon, the context menu and MRU list is displayed with a single pinned file and a list of recent files.
    If I right-click on one of those recent files and select "Pin to this list" or click on the pin icon on the right, the file replaces the one in the pinned section. Attempts to pin any file simply replaces the one that's there. It appears that I can have
    only one file pinned at a time.

    The files I'm trying to pin exist. I can open them from the MRU list.

    This doesn't happen with the Excel MRU list, just Word's.

    Troubleshooter reports no problems. SFC reports no problems. Win 10 is fully updated as of today.

    Please, don't ask me to reset the OS or reinstall Office...those solutions are overkill and just desperate attempts at proper troubleshooting.
