# Configure Windows 10 taskbar

Starting in Windows 10, version 1607, administrators can pin more apps to the taskbar and remove default pinned apps from the taskbar by adding a `<TaskbarLayout>` section to a layout modification XML file. This method never removes user-pinned apps from the taskbar.

The following example shows how apps will be pinned: Windows default apps to the left (blue circle), apps pinned by the user in the center (orange triangle), and apps that you pin using the XML file to the right (green square).

2. Edit and save the XML file. You can use [AUMID](./find-the-application-user-model-id-of-an-installed-app.md) or Desktop Application Link Path to identify the apps to pin to the taskbar.
* Add `xmlns:taskbar="http://schemas.microsoft.com/Start/2014/TaskbarLayout"` to the first line of the file, before the closing \>.
* Use `<taskbar:UWA>` and [AUMID](./find-the-application-user-model-id-of-an-installed-app.md) to pin Universal Windows Platform apps.
* Use `<taskbar:DesktopApp>` and Desktop Application Link Path to pin desktop applications.

3. Apply the layout modification XML file to devices using [Group Policy](customize-windows-10-start-screens-by-using-group-policy.md) or a [provisioning package created in Windows Imaging and Configuration Designer (Windows ICD)](customize-windows-10-start-screens-by-using-provisioning-packages-and-icd.md).

>If you use a provisioning package or import-startlayout to configure the taskbar, your configuration will be reapplied each time the explorer.exe process restarts. If your configuration pins an app and the user then unpins that app, the user's change will be overwritten the next time the configuration is applied. To apply a taskbar configuration that allows users to make changes that will persist, apply your configuration by using Group Policy.

Your organization can deploy a customized taskbar to your Windows devices. Customizing the taskbar is common when your organization uses a common set of apps, or wants to bring attention to specific apps. You can also remove the default pinned apps.
Your organization can deploy a customized taskbar to your Windows devices. Customizing the taskbar is common when your organization uses a common set of apps, or wants to bring attention to specific apps. You can also remove the default pinned apps.
For example, you can override the default set of apps with your own a set of pinned apps, and in the order you choose. As an administrator, use this feature to pin apps, remove default pinned apps, order the apps, and more on the taskbar.

To add apps you want pinned to the taskbar, you use an XML file. You can use an existing XML file, or create a new file. If you have an XML file that's used on Windows 10 devices, you can also use it on Windows 11 devices. You may have to update the App IDs.

This article shows you how to create the XML file, add apps to the XML, and deploy the XML file. To learn how to customize the taskbar buttons, see [CSP policies to customize Windows 11 taskbar buttons](supported-csp-taskbar-windows.md#csp-policies-to-customize-windows-11-taskbar-buttons).

## Before you begin
- There isn't a limit on the number of apps that you can pin. In the XML file, add apps using the [Application User Model ID (AUMID)](./find-the-application-user-model-id-of-an-installed-app.md) or Desktop Application Link Path (the local path to the app).

- There are some situations that an app pinned in your XML file won't be pinned in the taskbar. For example, if an app isn't approved or installed for a user, then the pinned icon won't show on the taskbar.
- The order of apps in the XML file dictates the order of pinned apps on the taskbar, from left to right, and to the right of any existing apps pinned by the user. If the OS is configured to use a right-to-left language, then the taskbar order is reversed.

- Some classic Windows applications are packaged differently than they were in previous versions of Windows, including Notepad and File Explorer. Be sure to enter the correct AppID.

Intune is a family of products that include Microsoft Intune, which is a cloud service, and Configuration Manager, which is on-premises.
