In this Picture it shows start menu with Office & MS Teams Weblinks(shortcuts) + MS Edge App Pinned to It, And I Don't Have Office & Teams Installed As Apps/Porgramms. These Ones Are Showing as Weblinks(Shortcuts to Web Version of Them)!!!

########################

Is it Possible to Make That When You Create New user in Windows to Not See These Pinned Apps in Start Menu. Is There Any Command That I can Run to Unpin These Office weblinks + Edge App From Start Menu without unpinning them from there Manualy? OR Is there any location where Windows Stores Apps to Pin to Live Titles By Default For New Users?

Is It Possible to Make Start Menu Layout/Screen to look for new user just like in Windows 10 LTSC (Long Term Servicing Channel) ? Or do You Need to Unpin These Weblinks(Shortcuts) Manualy Every Time When You Create a New User!

Answer 1

Hello

Thank you for your question and reaching out. I can understand you are having query\issues related to Pined items.

I believe they are default items which is bound within Windows installation.

But you can block it using group policies.

Press Win + R to open the Windows Run command dialog box.

Type gpedit.msc and press Enter to open the LGPE.

Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Taskbar.

Double-click on the Do not allow pinning programs to the Taskbar option on the right-hand side pane.
