LucyRH 0 Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 I'm using Windows 7 and haven't been able to pin Evernote to my taskbar in a while (I think since the upgrade to version 4). I've researched the problem through the forums and have tried all suggestions--both making sure I haven't pinned a shortcut (I haven't--opened from the program file and tried to pin from that icon) and uninstalling and reinstalling. Nothing's helped. When Evernote is open, I get the blank paper sheet default Windows icon instead of the Evernote logo and the right-click menu has Evernote shortcuts (new note, find note, clip screenshot, etc.) and no option to pin to taskbar. Anyone have ideas? I love Evernote and I love my taskbar. Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,589 Posted June 7, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted June 7, 2012 I think that you should submit a support request on this one -- I can't remember seeing anything like it, at least recently. See the link in my signature. Link to comment

LucyRH 0 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 I worked with someone in tech support and we tried a few things. Here's what ultimately fixed the problem: I found some previous cases of other users having the same issue with the pin to taskbar, and the solution that worked for them was to uninstall Evernote using a tool called revo uninstaller that should remove all broken traces of Evernote from your machine. You can download the free version of the tool here:http://www.revouninstaller.com/Once that is installed, use that to uninstall Evernote. After that, try installing the latest version and let me know if the issue remains. Link to comment
Erich Cervantez 1 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Easy! Just go to where you installed Evernote (probably C:\Program Files (x86)\Evernote\Evernote). Find the Evernote.exe application file, right-click on it, and Pin To Taskbar. Done! Link to comment
slamers 0 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I did not try the uninstaller option. I did try going to the folder, rick clicking on the evernote.exe and it still shows up in my taskbar without the icon. Link to comment
