Add Webpage URL to Windows Taskbar

Question

I would like to add a WebPage URL to Windows taskbar.
I have across Microsoft's article for the same : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/start-layout-xml-desktop
However, there are a lot of other settings too in the sample XML provided.
I would just like to have, let's say "http://www.bing.com/" added to my Windows taskbar.

I want something similar like this : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/configuration/configure-windows-10-taskbar#Keep%20default%20apps%20and%20add%20your%20own
But, instead of an entire application I would like to add a webpage URL to the taskbar.

Please help me in configuring the XML as described.

Answer 1

Hi there,

To add a website to the ‘Taskbar’ with Google Chrome, navigate to the website that you want to add. Next, click on the ellipsis near the top-right corner, hover the cursor over ‘More tools’ in the drop-down menu, and then select ‘Create shortcut’ from the menu that appears.

The shortcut will be added to the desktop. Head over to the desktop, right-click on the ‘Shortcut’, and select the ‘Pin to taskbar’ option from the context menu.
