Windows 10: can't add or remove tiles from start

Hi there,
I have a Surface Pro3 which came with win10 installed (unlike my other SP3 which I upgraded to W10). I just decided to customize my start menu a bit with some live tiles re-arrangement.
Problem: I can't seem to pin or unpin apps to the tiles section of the start menu. When I right-click (or touch-hold) and select "pin to start" it shows as pinned (in that the option then becomes to unpin) but the tile never shows up with the other tiles.
Likewise, I can't remove any tiles that are already there.

Somehow the tiles seem to have become locked.

Any help? *Smile
Thanks!

Cannot unpin items from Start or remove items from Most Used list

When I right-click unwanted tiles in Start and click "Unpin from Start," nothing happens. The unwanted tile stays.

The same happens with the Most Used menu. I right click and choose the "Don't show in this list" option, but nothing happens. The item stays.

Edit to add:

I can't seem to add things to Start either

Pin to Start doesn't work.

I also cannot add or remove folders from Start through the Settings > Personalization menu. I turn Start options on and off and nothing happens. I also can't get full screen Start to work.

In summary, I cannot customize or change my Start menu whatsoever.

 

"Some settings are controlled by your organisation" error message on trying to change system settings on Windows 10.

Original Title: <No Subject>

I cannot change specific settings from start menu.

I cannot change the location of tiles, cannot add or remove tiles, cannot resize them, can't move them around.

These are settings which I can't change from settings menu in start.

1. Show more tiles option in Settings->Personalization->Start is turned gray i.e. can't be changed.

2. This is written on the top of the page. "Some settings are managed by your organization".

Only setting that i can access is to turn a live tile off by right click on that live tile. Right-click->more->turn live tile off. Nothing else available.

Need Quick Respond Please.

Thx Before

 

Bump!

Pretty please? I'm pretty stumped on this....
Thanks for any guesses as to what's going on!

 

Run a system file check to look for corrupt files. It will try to do repair if any found.

Right click at Start button > click Command Prompt (Admin) > at the flashing prompt, copy/paste this.......
sfc /scannow

> press Enter.
It will take quite sometime.
When finished, it will give you one of the 3 reports...............(paraphrasing)
1. No integrity violation.
2. Found corrupt files and repair successful.
3. Found corrupt files but unable to repair.

If the report is #1, your solution lies elsewhere.
If the report is #2, check if your problems have been resolved.
If the report is #3, use this method................
In the same Command Prompt (Admin) windows, copy and paste this command...........

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

> press Enter.
Again it will take some time.
When finished, it will give you a report.
