Hello!
Is it possible to delete standard pinned "Windows Server" Start layout by GPO?
I have tried this article https://learn.microsoft.com/ru-ru/archive/blogs/deploymentguys/windows-10-start-layout-customization
Left only Explorer, exported xml and tried to load it by User Config → Admin Templates → Start Menu and Taskbar → Start Screen Layout
It didnt work as expected - users left with standard layout and cant unpin anything.
