Web shortcuts auto pinning on taskbar

Hi All -
Our other computer is still running Windows 10 Pro, and my wife complained that when she creates a shortcut thru Google Chrome, it automatically is also pinned on the taskbar. I was curious about if the same thing would happen in Windows 11 Pro, so I just tried it. Yeah, it does. Go to the 3 dots at the right top of Chrome, and go to More Tools>Create Shortcut . . . and create a shortcut. It will put it on the desktop, and pin it to the taskbar, too. It won't go away until unpinned. It does not happen if you copy the URL and go to the desktop and create a new shortcut. It never used to do that. What gives?

Yes exactly the same thing happening to me on Windows 10 Pro, when saving a webpage shortcut to the desktop via the Google - more tools dropdown menu - it's also auto pinning to the taskbar, but this has never happened previously and is only a new thing. Could it be a Google/Chrome update and does anyone know of a fix, other than manually unpinning, or copying the url and pasting it directly to the desktop?
