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.
First pin the site to the task bar via Edge's three dot menu/More tools/Pin to taskbar then right click on the new icon that it created on the taskbar, right click on the menu item above "Unpin from taskbar" and choose "Pin to start". You can then unpin the icon from the taskbar.
Thank you for your help
Your method was working for awhile. Now, the tile that is pinned to the Start page is a tile named W~MSEdge._crx__olgimjmhlbjeb.UserData. Default and not the site that had been saved to the task bar. It creates this same Edge tile no matter what site you are trying to pin. And, when you click on the tile it does nothing. Anybody else experiencing this?
Stumbled on that cumbersome solution already but thanks anyway. Here's hoping the next version of Edge won't require 3 steps to accomplish what 1 used to.
Thank you Sumit for your very quick reply. Plus the advice was very good.
It is such a shame that I cannot pin pages to Start Menu like I used to do.
I did what you said, and it all worked ok. However, If I'm going to put say 50 web pages in folders in my Start Menu, I will now end up with 50 more Apps in my Apps list; so disappointing.
Can you tell me Sumit, how I can go back to the previous old Edge, without losing my Favs and settings ??
I would appreciate your help.
