  1. Location of File Explorer's pinned shortcuts in Taskbar


    I am looking for the location of the list of pinned File Explorer shortcuts on the Taskbar. When any of the pinned Taskbar programs are right-clicked, a list of "Recent" items appears. If any of those are pinned, a list above "Recent" appears called "Pinned". I am looking for the location of those Pinned files wherever it may be located. The reason for this is I want to make sure that list is transferred from one PC to another, whether it be W7 to W10 or W10 to W10. The image below is what I am working with on my PC. I want to know where Softball, User_scripts, Active Projects, Script_Logs, Dropbox and Install shortcuts are located, not where they go to.

    Pin a File Explorer Shortcut to Taskbar

    I have the File Explorer app pinned to my Taskbar.

    I want to add a second File Explorer shortcut to the taskbar.

    This shortcut points to a particular folder that I use a lot.

    I can't get them both in the Taskbar.

    When I right click in the Taskbar the item for 'Lock the Taskbar' is NOT checked.

    I have my shortcut built on the Desktop.

    I try to move it by dragging the Desktop icon with my right mouse button.

    When I get over the Taskbar I get the red crossed circle.

    Thanks for any help!
