Windows 10: Want a print command on taskbar on file explorer, I don't want to have to constantly keep...

I cannot find a way to add print to the task bar on file explorer. I have to right click constantly, and then scroll to print more options then scroll down to print! It is getting boring tbh & I print constantly, this is a shortcut I need & use regularly. I can cut, copy, paste, one symbol that is blanked out rename, share, delete. etc etcThe main thing I do from this file explorer is Print! I cannot include screenshots as would give away private info in doing so. My default printer is set up & working perfectly. How do I add please! It's driving me insane! Thank you in advance

File explorer

Hi Mick,

I am sorry to know that the File Explorer is not working on the Taskbar.

I suggest you to right-click on it to unpin it from the task bar.

Then search for File Explorer in Search. Then right-click on it to Pin it to Taskbar.

If the issue persists, try the steps below.

  Type CMD in Search. Right click on it to run as an administrator.
  
• 
  Type the following 4 commands at the Command prompt:
  

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

sfc /scannow

powershell

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

• 
  Close the CMD window.
