How to stop a program from adding a Quick access shortcut?

Nope, that's not it. I've already deactivated that, as I don't care for the "automatic" judgement of Windows in this regard.
If I unpin the entry, it stays unpinned for a while and then reappears. Tipically after a reboot or after GDFS updates itself automatically and (presumably) restarts its service.

I've just tried: I stopped GDFS after unpinning that entry. I restarted it and the entry reappeared.
