Add Start Tiles to the Taskbar in Windows 8

1. Press the Windows key on your keyboard to open the Start screen. Look for a tile that you want to add, such as Dropbox for example.

2. Right-click on the tile and you'll see a green check mark appear on it.

3. Click on the "Pin to taskbar" option that appears in the green bar at the bottom of the Start screen.

4. Go to your desktop and look at the bottom of the screen in the taskbar. You should see the tile icon, in this case the blue one for dropbox, now on the taskbar.
