Hi, I hope somebody can help. My Windows 10 laptop has installed the new Edge Browser for 2020. It is Edge number 80.361.66, 64 bit. On the old Edge I can go to the more icon (....) at the top right, then More Tools, then Pin To Start. Now on this new Edge there is no Pin To Start. How can I pin a web page to my Start Menu. If I cannot pin a web page to my Start Menu, what's really the use of the Start Menu. I have always had folders on my Start Menu with pages pinned. Now I can't. Can anyone help me? Cheers.

I have figured out a way to pin a site to Start. See the GIF - requires you to pin to the taskbar first. unfortunately, the update to Edge cannot be uninstalled.

    You pin the webpage to the taskbar.

    Then, right-click the icon on the taskbar.

    A menu pops up and you right-click on the name of the webpage.

    This brings up a menu that can 'pin to start'. 

    You can do it again to 'unpin from start.

    This is the new way to do it in EDGE.

    Yep. I am a Microsoft fan and have not wanted to switch to another browser. Now, it might have to happen.

    Hi Sumit,

    I get as far as pinning it to start as in your GIF - but the link that ends up on start has no icon, a weird name and does not open anything. I really loved your answer - it just doesn't give the desired result. But thank you for trying.
