How to Pin and Unpin Tabs in Microsoft Edge in Windows 10


Information Microsoft Edge is a new web browser that is available across the Windows 10 device family. It is designed for Windows 10 to be faster, safer, and compatible with the modern Web.

Starting with Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 14291, Microsoft Edge now lets you pin tabs, making it super easy to keep your most-used sites and web apps always available.

Pinned tabs always appear at the start of the tab row, and only showing the site’s favicon. Pinned tabs don’t show a close button, so you won’t accidentally close them. Pinned tabs that are in your Microsoft Edge window when you close the app will come back the next time you open Microsoft Edge.

This tutorial will show you how to pin and unpin tabs in Microsoft Edge for your account in Windows 10.

How to Pin Tabs in Microsoft Edge and get them to stay pinned?


I used the tutorial "Microsoft Edge Tabs - Pin and Unpin in Windows 10" - "How to Pin and Unpin Tabs in Microsoft Edge in Windows 10" and was able to pin my go-to websites. Yea! Just click and go directly to the web page.

Alas....when I closed and re-opened Edge, they're all gone. *Sad How do I get them to stay pinned?

I'm on Win10 + Anniversary upgrade.

'Pin to Start' and 'Unpin from Start" items in Windows 10

Thanks Cliff. The first suggestion didn't work because the shortcut icon is not listed. The second easier suggestion didn't work because right-clicking does not include "Open File Location" as an option, only "Unpin from Start" and "Resize". Screenshots are included. "xmltobgl" is the culprit icon.
