Windows 8.1: Attach the tile to the taskbar - how it works

If you use certain tiles more often, you can also pin them to the taskbar in Windows 8.1. We show you how to do this.

Attach the tile to the taskbar in Windows 8.1

1. First, open your Windows Start menu by pressing the Windows key on your keyboard. Alternatively, you can of course also click on the Windows symbol at the bottom right.
2. Right-click the tile you want to pin on your desktop taskbar.
3. In the context menu, select "Pin to taskbar". In the screenshot, for example, the sports tile is pinned to the taskbar.
4. You can just as easily remove the app from the taskbar: Here, too, you will find the item "Remove this program from the taskbar" in the context menu.

At the same time, it is best to make sure that your Windows is up to date. We will show you how to install Windows 8.1: Update 1.
