    Pinning/Unpinning Apps


    On the Start Screen UI you can hold Ctrl + left click to select numerous items to pin or unpin at once but, it seems that's not possible on the Start Menu UI.
    Anyone else experience this?

    :)

    How do I pin & unpin apps on start screen?

    If you want to pin installed apps, tap and hold an app in the app list. Then choose to pin it to the start screen.



    If you want to unpin an app, just long press the tile and you will see a unpin symbol (pin with a slash through it). Click that and it is unpinned.

    How to bind hotkey to an app like Calculator in Windows 10?

    The calculator app doesn't have a "Create Shortcut" option when you right click on it. Only pin to/unpin from start and pin to/unpin from taskbar.

    Pinning/Unpinning Apps

    I wasn't able to select multiple items to remove them either.

    I found a PowerShell script which removed almost everything from the Start Menu.
