Installing Tasks on a Windows network

You can install Tasks across your Windows network at your company, school or university. You simply need to write one of the following keys to the registry:

If Google Chrome is your default web browser:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome\WebAppInstallForceList]
"82934"="{\"create_desktop_shortcut\": true,\"default_launch_container\": \"window\",\"url\": \"https://tasks.everway.com/\",\"fallback_app_name\": \"Tasks\", \"install_as_shortcut\": true}"

And if Microsoft Edge is your default web browser:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Edge\WebAppInstallForceList]
"82934"="{\"create_desktop_shortcut\": true,\"default_launch_container\": \"window\",\"url\": \"https://tasks.everway.com/\",\"fallback_app_name\": \"Tasks\", \"install_as_shortcut\": true}"

You can deploy these keys via Group Policy or other network management tools. 

The installation will not take effect until the browser (Edge or Chrome) is restarted - so users might have to log in and and out to see Tasks in the Start menu.
