This tutorial explains how to pin a website to Taskbar using Microsoft Edge in Windows 10. Till now, Microsoft Edge provided the option to pin a webpage to Start menu. Now we can easily pin any website or webpage from Edge browser directly to Windows 10 taskbar. This is possible with the new feature of Microsoft Edge.
In the screenshot visible below, you can see some webpages pinned to taskbar of Windows 10 using Microsoft Edge. The website favicon is visible as icon for pinned websites/webpages.

The Verdict:
If you want to access your favorite website quickly from taskbar, then this feature to pin websites to taskbar using Microsoft Edge is surely useful for you. Here, one thing that you might not like is that if you have pinned multiple webpages of a website, then the same favicon is visible for all those pinned pages. In that case, it will be difficult to identify which page is at which position. You need to place mouse cursor on a pinned icon so that you can view the title of that webpage. Still, I will say this feature is a nice addition in Microsoft Edge.
