    Adding Internet Explorer Shortcut to Start Menu


    Thanks for taking a look at my issue. I am trying to add the IE shortcut to my start-menu but I am finding it very difficult. I found some instructions online but they seem very complicated given that I am able to add other shortcuts with ease. Thanks!

    It's already on the Start menu, under 'Windows accessories'. Right-click on it and 'Pin to Start' will give you a tile on the Start menu, or right-click and 'More > Pin to taskbar' will put an icon on the taskbar for you (as I have done here).

    Then try removing IE in 'Windows Features', then add it back again. That should restore the shortcut to your Start menu.
