    Gaming Pin Locks


    I am 13 so I have an admin my dad on my computer that has to verify before I do certain things. Recently I have downloaded a game called Genshin Impact and the download was fine I asked him if I could get it and he put in his pin. About 2 hours later it was done and I started playing and then I got off. When I came back to my computer and tried to play it a screen popped up asking me to put in my admin's pin. I assumed it was a update thing so I went to him and he put in his pin. About 2 - 3 hours later I got off for dinner and then went back to play and it asked for the pin again. This time I knew it was not an update because nothing had changed about the game the first time. My Dad has work everyday and I can't physically open this game without him being here to verify it. We have had this issue before with minecraft java where I would try to launch it and it would ask for the pin but it only happened a few times.

    :)

    Clear "Pin suggested" list in People Bar

    Does anybody know how to clear the "Pin suggested" list on the "People bar"?

    Contacts are added to the "Pin suggested" list once you've pinned and unpinned them. But there seems to be no obvious way to remove them from that list.

    After playing around with this feature and pinning and unpinning many dummy contacts, it's rather annoying to see them in the "Pin suggested" list when you click on the "My People" icon in the taskbar.
