    Pin a document to my pinned app in the taskbar


    Hi,under Windows 10 I could drag & drop any file e.g. docx or xlsx to the Word/Excel icon, which is pinned on my taskbar. When righ-clicking on the Excel icon, I could see my pinned Excel files. Same with Word: I saw all my pinned documents. Windows 11 doesn't let me drag & drop files to the pinned Microsoft App in the taskbar anymore. Please note, it is not about pinning the Excel app to my taskbar or pinning a document as an app to the taskbar: it is about pinning a DOCUMENT to the pinned Mircosoft app. Thanks for helping me.Dom

    :)

    Pin to taskbar

    Hi, have a look at the solution suggested here:
    Can't pin certain desktop shortcuts to taskbar

    Normally you should be able to simply drag a shortcut to the taskbar and it will be pinned.

    Also see this: enable and disable pinning: (Option 2 for Home)

    There's this for Edge:

    Query re pinning and unpinning apps to taskbar

    Pinning an app to taskbar does not remove it from Start all apps list. It list in Start under letter M as in Microsoft Edge, you should find it there even when it is pinned to taskbar.

    You can personalize the desktop of two computers by pinning the apps, documents and other programs to the taskbar.

    • Click on Windows logo key on the keyboard to open
      Start menu
      .
    • Right click on the app and select Pin to taskbar option from the context menu.
    • Close the window and check if the app is pinned to taskbar.
