Looks like if pinned and then launched from taskbar, it launches ConEmu but without proper configuration. Also tasks created in Cmder are not run from taskbar.

This is because you pin the conemu exe not the init script that starts conemu with the right config. I think someone would have to make a protable launcher exe to pin because I don't think you can pin just a .lnk

right click the pin, right click the exe and at the end of the target line append /loadcfgfile "path:\to\cmder\config\conemu.xml"

I've tried to look but I have no idea if you can apply the conemu.xml contents to the registry key conemu checks HKCU:\SOFTWARE\ConEmu\.Vanilla so it just hits this by default

I think if you could write the .reg equivalent to conemu.xml and import it so
HKCU:\SOFTWARE\ConEmu\cmder then edit your EXE target and append /config cmder or just overwrite everything in vanilla with it. might not be best practice really. I'd expect that to break on updates.

You can slap the config file into /vedor/ConEmu/Conemu/ConEmu.xml and it will loaded by default.
But that kinda breaks all the separation, that I was aiming for, e.g no cofiguration in vendor folder
