    Pin Issues


    I was having mouse pointer issues and saw some advice to try a basic startup using msconfig.When I re-started with the basic startup I can no longer login because "Something happened and your pin isn't available, click to set up your pin again". When I do that I asks if I want to "search for app in the store" I need to install an app for this task, would I like to search for one in the store? I have a second account on the PC which is a basic user account and it wont let me open settings and when I try to upgrade to an admin account I need my pin, which is obviously not working anymore. How do

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    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.
