How to Add a Web Page to the Start Menu in Microsoft Edge

While there are certain Web pages that you will always be able to find from memory, a far more effective way of keeping certain sites accessible is to save their addresses somewhere. One option is to bookmark the page, or to save it as a favorite. That way you only need to click on the link in the future to visit that page.

But another option for saving a Web page in Microsoft Edge is to pin it to the Start menu. You will then be able to find and open that page in Edge by clicking its tile on the Start menu. Our tutorial below will show you how to do this for a page that you are visiting.
