Windows 10: Start Menu - How do I change Title/Label and Icon?

I have Pinned a few sites to the start menu using Microsoft Edge. My problem is that all of them have the same "E" edge (internet explorer) icon. So unless I keep them at large size, or remember in what order they were pinned/arranged, I have no clue which pin is for which site.

When you click "Pin To Start" in the options menu in Edge, where are those pins stored?
How do I change their Label/title and icon?

How do I change the Title Bar color of ALL Windows 10 Explorer windows?

I'm running Win 10 Pro v1511 build 10586.318

I've seen variations of this questions asked many times, and the solution of running the Win 10 Fall Build to have colored title bars included when turning on "Show color on Start, taskbar, action center, and title bar". As you can see above I have the correct
version.

However I'm not sure if this is working correctly with my system or if it's a bug.

What happens is that when I enable the feature, all the applied items do indeed change color, including Explorer windows, but only when in the taskbar. If I hover over Explorer windows in the taskbar, they all show with the enabled color. But as soon as
I bring multiple Explorer Windows to the desktop, only the active Window is colored. I'm hoping this isn't how they implemented it, because if so it's a major oversight. The ability to have
all title bars colored is not just an esthetic thing - it's a functional feature for productivity. I'm using multiple monitors for my workstation. I'll have many Explorer windows open and showing on the desktop - sometimes four spread across the two
screens. I'll be re-arranging them frequently. If I'm going to grab an Explorer window and the title bar is clear on the inactive one, then many times I just miss the title bar and it swipes without grabbing it. Maybe this seems like a small issue, but if
it's your workstation and you're doing this frequently it's a real pain. The only colored bar is the active one. If anything it should be the other way around - clear on active and colored on inactive.

When I say it's not just an esthetic thing, I should actually say it isn't an esthetic thing at all. The stock solid colors they give you are abysmal. I went through the rather convoluted method of modifying Theme Files to create an additional aero color
theme that enables the color mixer. However that doesn't work. If I use the Intensity or Hue sliders it does nothing. The one single Explorer window with a colored border sits like a taunting insult, while the others remain white.

Please tell me there is a way to enable color on all Explorer title bars. Or to at least have a black line or something else separating the title bar from the menu bar and the rest of the white window.

 

I guess it depends on the site; most sites will generate a favicon, if not, the name will still be on the tile(1) as small as medium, if the tile is small it should show a mouse hover tip(2).
The application shortcuts are of the XAML type and can't be altered or edited.

 

Darn Fair enough. Thank you.

 

Hi varxtis,

The app "Web Tiles" automatically creates Start Tiles with icons from the website. You can edit the title and add custom images, too. Works like a charm!
Check it it out in the Store: Your request appears to be from an automated process

 

Right click the icon on Start
open file location
right click on the shortcut
change icon





Browse different files or dlls and choose the icon you want displayed

You can change the Name on the general tab

Start isn't always updated automatically - you might have to kick it
The easiest way I've found is to pin something to Start, then unpin it
You might be able to unpin the same shortcut you just changed, then pin it back to Start - not sure.
