how to keep W7 start menu pinned items when upgrading to W10

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.

Answer for your question, “Windows 7 ability to pin recent opened items in jump lists is the fastest way to access your most used stuff, is this feature discontinued in W10?” “YES”

You have an option to pin the recent opened items in the jump lists. Windows 10 allows you to display the recent items starting from number 0 to 60. You can choose any number as per your preference and then you will be able to see that number of recent
items on your Jump Lists. To quickly open any program, you can also use Quick Access on Windows 10.

It shows you the list of lately and repeatedly opened, mostly visited, tasks or pinned items of any pinned program or currently active program on the Taskbar. When you make a right click on any pinned item on the Taskbar or on any running program, you can
see a list of certain items. Those items are different for files, folders, and websites. The pinned and recent items are visible in case of folders. You are also provided with the facility to pin the recent items. And the Jump Lists of file show you the recently
used file along with an option to pin them to the taskbar. But the websites have different sections like most visited, recently closed, and tasks.


Note: The number of Jump Lists on windows 10 is 10 by default.

If you are facing issue with jump list/ or you want to have more than 10 jump list to be view on windows 10 after upgrading, I suggest you to follow the steps below to change the settings.

taskbar and menu items not working

If you go to the settings and click open the account tab do you see your self as the administrator. If not it indicates that you need to create one or give your self the access. The error you got also indicates that you are not authorized to change the settings.


while looking in to this I came up with a possible other solution:
"I had this issue as well. The following helped me:1) Run "/sfc scannow" in Administrative Command Prompt
2) Create a new user account
3) Log out of current account and sign into new account
4) Wait a few minutes then sign out of new account and log in to your account
5) Open start menu"
