    Pinned documents on the Start menu Windows 10


    Split from this thread. Hi Stefan,Many thanks for your explanation, which I could also find confirmed by Google Gemini AI. It seems typical for Microsoft to either not having communicated these changes or else I missed them. Another thing bothers me, anyway: I used to have access to my most recent "pinned" documents by right-clicking on the Windows 10 start menu tiles of M365, e.g. Word, Excel etc. These handy quickly accessible mini file lists also seems to having disappeared or might this be a gentle reminder to migrate to the still not very reliable Windows 11 thing?.I'd be happy to hear

    :)

    How to pin shortcut to start menu.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    As per the description, I understand that you would like to know how to pin short cut to start menu.

    I would suggest you to refer to the article given below if you are using Windows 7.

    Pin a program to the Start menu

    Windows help and learning

    And if you are using Windows 10 then I would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below.

    Pin apps to Start

    Pin the apps you use most often to the Start menu. Here's how:

    • Go to Start > All Apps.
    • Press and hold (or right-click) an app.
    • Select Pin to Start.




    Hope this helps. Please let us know the results. We will be happy to assist you further.
