Windows 10 - Can't pin or unpin

[V15VA]

I've just upgraded to windows 10 from windows 8.1 and I'm experiencing a glitch: when I try an pin or unpin things (e.g. from the start menu or quick access menu in explorer) the icons don't move.

However in the context menu the text that said "Unpin from start" or "Unpin from quick access" changes to "Pin to start" or "Pin to quick access respectively".

I've tried doing a sfc /scannow in an elevated command prompt but it showed no errors and has made no difference.

please note that the same thing happens when I try to uninstall apps, they don't move.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance,

Hello,

Kindly try the following;

- Right click Start button
- Choose Command prompt (Admin)
- Key in Powershell in the black window and hit Enter.
- Paste the following command in the Administrator: Windows PowerShell window and press Enter key:

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

- Wait for PowerShell to execute and complete the command. Ignore the few errors (in red color) that may pop up.
- When it finishes, restart your PC, and try hitting Start and try again to pin/unpin.
