    Quick access pinning and unpinning does not work in Windows 10.

    In an Explorer window, my Windows 10 "Quick Access" menu does not take new pins or remove existing ones based on folder actions initiated via the right-click menus.

    For example, if I right click "Folder XYZ" in an Explorer window, select "Pin to Quick Access" - it does not get added to the Quick Access menu.

    If I right click an item in the Quick Access menu, select "Unpin from Quick Access" - it does not get removed from the Quick Access menu.

    So the old "Favourites" functionality is gone. There appears to be zero control on this replacement menu.

    Is there a key shortcut that will allow me to toggle the levels of the task bar when it takes more than a single level?

    It is built in, they just hide it. And I added more info to my post, so re-read it.

    Now you have your pinned items on taskbar, another full row to add items in quick launch and your pinned quick access items in explorer that is pinned to taskbar. Everything at your fingertips. And auto hide task bar gives you full access to your whole screen
    viewing area in normal or full screen mode.

    And you are Welcome!
