How to put a folder on taskbar Windows 11

You probably want a folder which holds all your MSFS links. Links to apps (Lil Nav Map | Lorby X&O| Orbx |FSUIPC ETC), to .cfg files, to manuals, to browser URLs.

In Windows 7 thru 10 you could create a toolbar on the taskbar which held all of these links organized by you. Windows 11 does not allow  toolbars.

You can pin a folder that holds these links and pin that to the taskbar. Unfortunately Windows 11 took away the ability to drag folders to the taskbar. You can still drag shortcuts. But not shortcuts to folders (you could do this Win 7-10).

Here is how to it without dragging:

Create the shortcut to the folder in File Explorer by right clicking on the folder, picking show more options, and then pick create shortcut. Windows will ask if you want the shortcut on the desktop. click yes.

Now right click on the desktop icon of that folder and click Properties. And then choose Target. In the path in the Target box add this text to the beginning of that path: exlorer.exe and then add a space after that final e. Click OK. Now right click on that desktop icon again and a new option has magically appeared: Pin to Taskbar.

When  you were back at the Properties box you could also change the icon so that the icon in the taskbar is obviously your  MSFS folder.
