Hi Dan,



Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.



You can pin the items you want to be displayed in your Taskbar.

• Open the app you want to be pinned on the Taskbar.
• Once it shows up on the Taskbar right click on it and click Pin this program to Taskbar.

For more information on how to pin apps on Taskbar click on the link below: (also applicable for Windows 10)

Assuming what you meant was : there is the "Pin to Taskbar" option but it does not work when you click at it.

If that is the case, my suggestion is to do a system file check to look for corrupt files. It will try to do repair if any corrupt files are found.

Right click at Start button > click Command Prompt (Admin) > at the flashing prompt, copy/paste this.......
sfc /scannow

> press Enter.
It will take quite sometime.
When finished, it will give you one of the 3 reports...............(paraphrasing)
1. No integrity violation.
2. Found corrupt files and repair successful.
3. Found corrupt files but unable to repair.

If the report is #1, your solution lies elsewhere.
If the report is #2, check if your problems have been resolved.
If the report is #3, use this method................
In the same Command Prompt (Admin) windows, copy and paste this command...........

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

 

thank you for the advice but no go still have same problem

 

This might help: tweaking.com's Windows Repair (All in One), after downloading, boot into Safe Mode with Networking, for now, uncheck all except items 26 & 27. Restart patiently twice. If still no go, try again w/26 & 27, this time add system files association, system files registration. Restart patiently twice. I say patiently because Windows has to take its time to smooth itself out.

 

i just had to put back the shortcut arrows and it worked
