    How drag a websites shortcut icon to the desktop and not as a generic?


    I'm using Win10 Home and MS 365

    I like to keep a lot of commonly used website as customize icons for desktop shortcuts using my default browser, Google Chrome.

    When I hold down the mouse button and then drag it to the desktop most website icons change immediately to a generic icon as soon as I release the mouse button.

    Is there a way to fix this?
