  1. Is there a way to have folders in the task bar?


    For example, I have separate icons in the taskbar for Steam, SteamVR, and Blizzard games launcher.

    Is there a way to have all of those shortcuts in one folder, so when I click on the folder it expands and shows the separate shortcuts within it?

    Using Windows 10 and currently I am using Defender for anti virus. For whatever reason Windows Defender does not show up in the task bar unless I search for the program or right click and scan a file/folder. Is there a way to force Defender to show up in the task bar at start up?
