Remote Desktop Connection 8.1 cannot pin remoteapps to taskbar?

Hi,

I recently applied kb2830477 and related patches to a windows 7 enterprise node. I also updated a Windows 8 pro node to 8.1.  I'm enjoying the speed and other enhancements.  There are still problems, i.e. Outlook 2010 and 2013 toast and sound don't work.

We run RDS remote apps on production 2008 r2 and distribute via .msi files; those pin to the taskbar fine.  Unfortunately the newer remote applications distributed via Control Panel > Remote app and desktop connections won't pin to the taskbar, or at least I can't figure out how.

On Win/7 I used to drag and drop 2012 r2 remote apps from the All programs > Remote app and desktop connections to the taskbar, or alternatively send to desktop, then drag that shortcut to the taskbar.  that doesn't work, I get a red-lined circle when I hover over the taskbar.

On Win/8 I used to display all apps, then right-click and choose Pin to Taskbar; that option is no longer available.

Any thoughts?  These apps still launch from the desktop, puzzled as to why they won't pin to the taskbar for easy access.

Best,

S'
