Is there a way to pin Office 2016 and 2013 shortcuts to task bar and start menu Windows 10 and Windows 7
Hello,
I am trying to create a post install task for both Windows 7 and Windows 10 that will pin Office Short Cuts to the task bar and start menu. I found this https://www.itninja.com/question/is-there-anyway-to-pin-shortcuts-to-the-toolbar-or-start-menu-for-all-user-profiles-in-windows-7-k2000 already but when I run this task it does not pin the items. The task completes, but the shortcuts are not there. I would like to just pin Word, Excel and PowerPoint nothing else.

For pinning items as part of the unattended setup:
For changing the default layout after setup:
