MS Edge and Favorites
How do I drag and drop (or otherwise add) a browser URL to Favorites (or shortcut bar) in MS Edge?
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

I'm not at a Win10 PC to try it, but I suspect it involves right-clicking on the background of the page that you're looking at (which is how I do it in IE as well as Chrome or Firefox).
A couple of links in case they help:

The star icon next to the URL will add that url to favorites. Under Settings (click the ellipsis to the far right, then Settings), the second setting lets you show the favorites bar. To browse favorites click the 4th icon from the right, which looks like a left align symbol. That opens a tabbed sidebar with Favorites, Reading List, History, & Downloads. The sidebar isn't great for organizing. You can right click on an existing folder to create another folder. Then drag it where you want. You can only drag items up or down one level at a time afaict. But I may have missed something; I haven't experimented that much with it.
Other nice bits:
The little book icon next to the star icon for favorites is a nice reading mode that wipes the side bars off pages just leaving the article.
The Pencil and Pad icon enters editing mode where you can highlight & draw on the page and save it for later. Pretty nicely done.

{Ctrl+D} still works.

Click the star in the address bar on the right hand side to add to your favorites and shortcut bar. Hope this helps.

Sorry for not being clearer in my question - Donnie's was the answer I needed.
