How to pin Google Chrome with a specific user (profile) to Windows 10 taskbar?

I am running Google Chrome v71 with two profiles. How do I pin it to the taskbar with both, specific profiles?

1. Go to the Chrome settings
2. Go to "Change name and picture" in the People section
3. Toggle "Show desktop shortcut"
4. In case you already pinned your default Chrome to the taskbar you need to unpin it
5. Find the created shortcut on your desktop and pull it onto your start bar or right click and select "Pin to taskbar"
6. Repeat with other account

From 2016 to today (2019-01) this has changed and previous solutions no longer work. I've only found this tedious process that works for me:

1. Pin any running Chrome profile window to the taskbar.
2. In the Windows Explorer app, open %AppData%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar
3. Open Chrome's app properties (Shift+right-click -> Properties), extend the target with --profile-directory="Default"
4. Change "Default" into the corresponding folder name from %userprofile%\appdata\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data, e.g. "Profile 1"
5. For more than one pinned Chromes, copy this file and adapt
