Windows 10: Unable to pin a start menu item to Windows Tile

I tried to pin my Camera start menu item to a tile in Windows. At first it worked & I saw it move over, then something happened, I heard a beep & it disappeared. Now it is not giving me the option to move it there again, but it thinks it is already there but it is not. Can someone tell me how to get the option back to pin the tile there. The only options now are unpin from start, pin to taskbar which I don't want, uninstall, rate & review, settings, and share. There are also existing tiles in that area where the only options are "unpin from start". What if I didn't want to

:)

Only "pin to start" (as a tile) and not "pin to start menu"?

And "pin to start list" is still there in the latest build? Yup.

 

Unable to removed pinned item from start menu

I have just upgraded to Windows 10 Pro from Windows 7 Pro (August 7th 2015) and have been creating tiles for the start menu. When I first opened the start menu I removed all of the default live tiles so I could make my own custom tiles, I successfully
created custom tiles linked to a custom library.

However, I have now decided I wish to remove this tile and am unable to do so, when I select unpin from start menu the item does not remove whatsoever. When I created the tile I did so in the following manner:

1. Created a shortcut to the library on my desktop

2. Right clicked, and selected 'Pin to Start'

3. Opened the start menu and it was there

This single tile is causing great trouble for me as I am unable to fully customise my start menu, especially as it is in the way of other tiles I wish to create.
