Windows 10: A final solution for removing pinned apps from start menu?

I've been trying to remove new pinned tiles every time I boot my system, but so far been no luck. Most tutorials are either unfinished or don't work.

So I was wondering if there is a proper solution to disabling the ability for apps to create pins on the start menu, because it's annoying to boot and the first thing you have to do every day is remove the pinned apps.
