New features and behavior:
- Changed the ability to pin a website to the desktop into the ability to pin a website to the taskbar.
Now that this "feature" has been introduced, how does one pin a website to the desktop? Being able to create a shortcut on the desktop was far more useful than being able to pin to the taskbar because the shortcut could be moved to different locations.
Why was the ability to pin a website to the desktop removed? Who asked for it to be removed?
PiecesOf8 while I was the one asking for an ability to pin the website to the taskbar, and I'm rather happy about its implementation (with one glitch yet -- the taskbar button is not protruding itself, when it's launched), but I didn't think it would be implemented in "Pin to Desktop" expense. I hope you guys will get it back with the next release. I hope both are going to be possible I the final version.

Not likely to return; was not supposed to be there in the 1st place and they fixed their goof. It has never existed, not in our browsers nor from Start nor from an Applications window. And putting things all over the desktop has never been encouraged. It does, however, make good sense to, actually, pin things where they can, actually, be seen & easily accessed whilst working or doing things on that same desktop.
Cheers,
