There's no reason to waste time looking through your Start menu to launch Desktop Gold when you can have the shortcut ready and waiting for you right on your desktop.
Pin AOL.com to your Windows 10 Start menu The AOL homepage can be pinned to your Start menu to avoid having to open your browser and manually enter the web address. Pinning an item to your Start menu creates a tile that acts like a shortcut to a website you use the most.
Open the Windows Start menu and click All apps. Locate the AOL app in the list. Right-click on the app name. A small menu will appear. Click Pin to Start to add this app to your Start menu. Alternatively, you can select Pin to taskbar if you would like to add a shortcut to the bottom of your desktop.
The position of the taskbar can be changed to appear on any edge of the primary display (except in Windows 11, where the taskbar is permanently fixed at the bottom of the screen and cannot be moved to the top, left, or right side).

In Windows 8, the shutdown function was moved out of the Start screen, only to be brought back in Windows 8.1 Update (in April 2014) with a sufficiently high screen resolution.
It is also usually possible to switch the active window by clicking on the appropriate button. In Microsoft Windows, this area of the screen is called the taskbar; in Apple Macintosh systems this area of the screen is called the dock. The active window may not always lie in front of all other windows on the screen.
