If you are a Google Chrome user on Windows, you may have come across the issue of not being able to pin your main profile to the taskbar. This can be frustrating, especially if you have multiple profiles and need quick access to your main one. Luckily, there is a simple solution to this problem.
Firstly, you need to ensure that you have the “Show desktop shortcut” option turned on for the profile you want to pin. To do this, open Chrome, click on the profile you want to pin, and then click on the three dots in the top right corner of the window. From there, click on “Edit” and make sure that the “Show desktop shortcut” option is turned on.
Once you have done this, close out of Chrome and unpin any existing shortcuts to the profile from your taskbar. Then, open Chrome again and click on the profile you want to pin. The shortcut you just enabled should now be visible on your desktop. Right-click on this shortcut and select “Pin to taskbar”.
Now, when you click on the pinned shortcut in your taskbar, your main profile will open up without any issues. No more disappearing shortcuts or having to go through another profile to access your main one!
In conclusion, pinning your Chrome profile to the taskbar on Windows 10 is a simple fix that can save you a lot of frustration in the long run. By ensuring that the “Show desktop shortcut” option is turned on, unpinning any existing shortcuts, and pinning the new shortcut to your taskbar, you can easily access your main Chrome profile with just one click.
