Since Windows XP days I've been copying my hierarchical menu folder of
program shortcuts to Windows versions from XP to Vista to Windows 8 to
Windows 10 and they have always worked flawlessly, using native Windows.
I've upgraded one of my newer laptops to Windows 11 but I can't find the
method to pin an accordion pullout folder of hierarchically organized
program shortcuts to the taskbar in Windows 11.
This is a critical need since the ability to pin a shortcut menu folder has ALWAYS been in every Windows version (despite some people using Classic
Shell to do what was always already there <
http://www.classicshell.net/>).
I seriously hate to have to install software just to pin a pullout folder
of shortcuts to the Windows 11 taskbar, which is why I'm asking for help.
I have two simple questions, which I hope are answered in this order.
First question (which is the only question that needs to be answered):
*How do I pin a folder of program shortcuts to the native Win11 taskbar?*
Second question (which need not be answered if the first is answered):
*What free software allows a custom Windows 11 taskbar accordion menu?*
I should note that I never saw why people used Classic Shell when all they
may have wanted was a custom start menu (although it did more than that).
So that's why the FIRST question should be answered before any attempt to answer the second question needs to be made as a workaround to the first.
