Pinned items should already display, what do you currently see when you right click the Files icon?

We're also working on some stability improvements, so if there is an issue, it will hopefully be resolved with #17564.

It been an issue for a while that the recent items will push up the pinned items until it doesn't display. As reported in #16491

Can you confirm if it's fixed with #17564?

I have disabled recent files on this PC. When I right-click Files in my taskbar, I just see Files, if I right-click on that I get the option to run as Administrator, unpin from taskbar. What I would like is to see my Downloads, Desktop, Music and custom things I've pinned to the pinned section in Files appear in the taskbar.

I know you want to see the pins, the jump list only shows folders in recent section also and that is what is hiding the pins, it doesn't follow Windows File Explorer options yet.

@yaira2 It is fixed with that PR

This is eventually planned, right?

Thank you for confirming! We're working to finish that PR, hopefully soon.
