@Reverse7 said in Taskbat Pin doesn't work:

I have Windows 10 April Update on my home pc and when i pin Opera GX on my taskbar... The seccond time i run it, automatically unpins from there... On my work computer i don't have the new Windows update and it works fine... Anyone has the same problem on the new Windows?

Can confirm this on W10 v1903.

I have the same problem. Open Opera, pin it to the task bar, closes it, open from the pinned icon, this icon disappears and I have to pin again. I tried to re-install it twice, tried to change the installation folder and to "install for all users", but nothing worked. Hope to find a fix soon cause its very annoying. Windows 10 v1903 here.

@wesll-ey @wesll-ey To solve it, go to Opera's install folder, find the "launcher.exe' and mannually drag it to the taskbar, then it should not unpin itself anymore. The default path for the regular Opera Browser is C:\Program Files\Opera , and for Opera GX is C:\Users\YourUserHere\AppData\Local\Programs\Opera GX .

It should work

Hello, I have such a problem that I can not attach to the taskbar the two icons of different Opera and Opera GX browsers.

The film that I recorded shows the problem most:

How to make these icons not disappear after starting the program?

Sorry for my english.

I have the same problem, but I found a solution to fix it :

1°) Go to the installation folder of Opera GX
2°) Right click on "launcher.exe" => send to => Desktop (shortcut)
3°) Move the new shortcut in the installation folder of Opera GX
4°) Rename the shortcut "Opera GX" for more visibility
5°) Drag the new shortcut from the installation folder of Opera GX to the taskbar and unpin the Opera (classic if is already pin
6°) Enjoy!

PS : sorry for my english

Hi there, I am having the same problem and I have installed using the "All Users" option. For me I noticed that if I pin it then close the browser it stays pinned. If I open the browser again and close it it unpins itself.

  Results: the icon is no more present on the Windows taskbar
