Pin application to Taskbar in win 10 programmatically C#

[ABDUL SUBHAN MOHAMMED]

I would like to Pin application to <g class="gr_ gr_37 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar only-ins replaceWithoutSep" data-gr-id="37" id="37">taskbar</g> in Windows 10 programmatically in c#.

I tried this code, this code is unPinning the application but not Pinning the application.

<pre>

//PinUpin Application from Taskbar in Win7
[DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true, BestFitMapping = false, ThrowOnUnmappableChar = true)]
internal static extern IntPtr LoadLibrary(string lpLibFileName);

[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true, BestFitMapping = false, ThrowOnUnmappableChar = true)]
internal static extern int LoadString(IntPtr hInstance, uint wID, StringBuilder lpBuffer, int nBufferMax);

public static bool PinUnpinTaskbar(string filePath, bool pin)
{
if (!File.Exists(filePath)) throw new FileNotFoundException(filePath);
int MAX_PATH = 255;
var actionIndex = pin ? 5386 : 5387; // 5386 is the DLL index for"Pin to Tas&kbar", ref. Windows 7 DLL File Information - shell32.dll
//uncomment the following line to pin to start instead
//actionIndex = pin ? 51201 : 51394;
StringBuilder szPinToStartLocalized = new StringBuilder(MAX_PATH);
IntPtr hShell32 = LoadLibrary("Shell32.dll");
LoadString(hShell32, (uint)actionIndex, szPinToStartLocalized, MAX_PATH);
string localizedVerb = szPinToStartLocalized.ToString();

string path = Path.GetDirectoryName(filePath);
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(filePath);

// create the shell application object
dynamic shellApplication = Activator.CreateInstance(Type.GetTypeFromProgID("Shell.Application"));
dynamic directory = shellApplication.NameSpace(path);
dynamic link = directory.ParseName(fileName);

dynamic verbs = link.Verbs();
for (int i = 0; i < verbs.Count(); i++)
{
dynamic verb = verbs.Item(i);
if (verb.Name.Equals(localizedVerb))
{
verb.DoIt();
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
//end

</pre>
