You can pin an Excel 2016 button to the Windows 10 Start menu and/or its taskbar. This enables you to launch Excel simply by selecting this button. To pin a button, right-click the Excel 2016 menu item in the Start menu and then select the Pin to Start and/or Pin to Taskbar items in the displayed context menu.

Starting Excel from the Windows 10 Ask Me Anything text box

      Instead of opening the Windows 10 Start menu and locating the Excel 2016 item there, you can launch the program by selecting this item from the Search the Web and Window text box. Simply type excel into the text box that appears to the immediate right of the Windows button on the taskbar and click Excel 2016 at the top of its result list.

      

If you want Cortana, the voice-activated online Windows assistant, to launch Excel 2016 for you, click the microphone icon in this text box (that is now called Ask Me Anything). When she displays the listening prompt, say “Cortana, start Microsoft Excel 2016.”

Starting Excel from the Windows 8 Start screen

      When starting Excel 2016 from the Windows 8 Start screen, you simply select the Excel 2016 program tile either by clicking it if you have a mouse available or tapping it with your finger or stylus if you’re running Windows 8 on a touchscreen device.

      If you can’t locate the Excel 2016 tile among those displayed on the Start screen, use the Search feature to find the application and pin it to the Windows 8 Start screen:

      Windows 8 displays Excel 2016 in the list of programs under Apps on the left side of the screen.

      2. Right-click the Excel 2016 button in the Apps list on the left side of the screen.

      On a touchscreen device, the equivalent to the right-click of the mouse is to tap and hold the Excel 2016 menu item until a circle appears around your finger or stylus. Then, when you remove the finger or stylus from the screen, the shortcut menu appears.

      3. Select the Pin to Start option in the menu bar that appears at the bottom of the screen.

      After pinning an Excel 2016 tile to the Windows 8 Start screen, you can move it by dragging and dropping it in your desired block.

Starting Excel from the Windows 7 Start menu

      When starting Excel 2016 from the Windows 7 Start menu, you follow these simple steps:

      1. Click the Start button on the Windows taskbar to open the Windows Start menu.

      To select the Start button on a touchscreen device with no mouse, you tap the button on the touchscreen.

      2. Select All Programs on the Start menu followed by the Microsoft Office 2016 and Excel 2016 options on the continuation menus.

      2. Click in the Start menu’s search text box and type the letters exc to have Windows locate Microsoft Office Excel 2016 on your computer.

      4. Select the Microsoft Excel 2016 option that now appears in the left Programs column on the Start menu.

Adding an Excel 2016 shortcut to your Windows 7 desktop

      Some people prefer having the Excel program icon appear on the Windows desktop so that they can launch the program from the desktop by double-clicking this program icon. To create an Excel 2016 program shortcut for your Windows 7 desktop, follow these simple steps:

      1. Click the Windows Start button and then select the All Programs option on the Start menu.

      Windows 7 displays a new menu of program options on the Start menu.

      2. Select the Microsoft Office 2016 option on the Start menu.

      Windows displays a submenu listing all the Office 2016 programs installed on your device.

      3. Drag the Excel 2016 item from the Start menu to the Windows 7 desktop and drop it in the desired position.

      As you drag the icon to the desktop, the screen tip “Move to Desktop” appears under the outline of the icon. When you drop the icon in place on the desktop, Windows adds an Excel 2016 shortcut icon that launches the program when you double-click it with a mouse or double-tap it with your finger or a stylus on a touchscreen device.

Pinning Excel 2016 to your Windows 7 Start menu

      If you use Excel all the time, you may want to make its program option a permanent part of the Windows 7 Start menu. To do this, you pin the program option to the Start menu:

      1. Click the Windows Start button and then select the All Programs option on the Start menu.

      Windows 7 displays a new menu of program options on their Start menus.

      2. Select the Microsoft Office 2016 option from the Start menu.

      Windows 7 displays a submenu listing the Office 2016 programs.

      3. Right-click Excel 2016 on the Windows continuation or submenu to open its shortcut menu.

      On a touchscreen device, the equivalent to the right-click of the mouse is to tap and hold the Excel 2016 menu item until a circle appears around your finger or stylus. Then, when you remove the finger or stylus from the screen, the shortcut menu appears.

      4. Select Pin to Start Menu on the shortcut menu.

      

After pinning Excel in this manner, the Excel 2016 option always appears in the upper section of the left-hand column of the Windows Start menu, and you can then launch Excel simply by opening the Windows Start button and then selecting this menu option.

      

After you pin the Excel 2016 option onto the Windows 7 Start menu, Windows adds a continuation button to the right of the menu item. Whenever you highlight this menu item with a mouse (or tap it on a touchscreen), Windows 7 automatically expands the Start menu to display a list of your recently opened Excel workbook files. You can then open one of these files for further editing at the same time you launch the Excel 2016 program simply by selecting its filename on the continuation menu.

Pinning Excel 2016 to the Windows 7 taskbar

      Instead of, or in addition to, pinning Excel 2016 to the Windows 7 Start menu, you can pin an Excel 2016 button to the Windows taskbar.
