In windows 8 I was able to pin a folder to the taskbar and when I right clicked my mouse over it I was given give a list of recently accessed folders and also able to pin them. Now, after upgrading to Windows 10, I can't. All I get now is "File Explorer" (to open my computer), "Unpin from Taskbar" and "Close Window". I REALLY appreciated this shortcut. Can anyone help?enter image description here

  • This is very much a feature of Windows 10 - I just checked. So what do you see when you right click file explorer on the task bar, could you add a screen shot?

This may solve your problem, Right click on your Task Bar and un-check "Lock the Taskbar"

Make Sure TaskBar is unlocked

Drag and Drop the folder you wish to pin onto your taskbar

What It Should Look Like

Then Right-Click on your file explorer it should then appear like this

Pinned!

I hope this helps!

  • Unfortunately, it wasn't locked. Locking it and unlocking it made no difference.

  • Can you describe exactly what happens when you try to follow these steps?
