How to pin an entry in the Firefox jump list (task bar context menu) that is not in "frequent" list?

When right-clicking on the Firefox icon in the Windows task bar one has the option to "pin" items by hovering over an entry in the "frequent" list and clicking on the little pin needle icon (with the hover text "Pin to this list").

How can I pin items that are not in the frequent list? I have tried for weeks to make an important page a frequent one by making sure to visit it daily but it never makes it to the list.

Hi Monika,

I'm not sure it's possible on Windows 11. On Windows 10, you could drag the lock icon from the address bar to the Firefox icon in the taskbar and pin a website, but that behavior hasn't been preserved on Windows 11. I filed a bug for that, but it's low-prioritized, and I don't think it will be fixed in the foreseeable future, unless some volunteer submits a patch.
