W 8 start screen utility pin/unpin multiple apps etc..
« on: October 02, 2015, 06:03 PM »
With hundreds of apps it is way too much hassle to right click each tile to pin/unpin.  Anyone know of a free Windows 8.x start screen utility to manipulate such things easily?

At this point I got fed up and used a command line to remove them all.  But right clicking items to pin from All Apps does not work.  The tiles do not show up in the start screen.  I just want to have maybe a dozen there so they are easy to find.  Mostly desktop programs to be honest.  Stuff like ShadowExplorer,  Belarc Advisor etc..  The way it is now I have to hunt down the exe in the install folder and use Pin to Start from the Context Menu.  Arrrggghhh!!  Heh heh
