Windows 10 - Pinning Programs to the Taskbar

Summary

Quickly access your most used programs by pinning them to your taskbar.

Body

Overview

In Windows 10, it's easy to fully customize your taskbar to quickly access your most used pieces of software and more efficiently navigate your computer.


Process

To pin items to your taskbar, follow these steps:

  1. First we will need to find the program in the Start Menu. This can be done by clicking the Windows icon in the bottom left corner of the screen. For this example, we are going to pin Adobe Photoshop.

     
  2. Once you have found the program, right click on it, hover over "More", and select "Pin to taskbar".

     
  3. Now, whenever you want to run the program, instead of having to search for it in the programs file, go to your desktop, or go through the Start Menu- just click on the pinned icon!
