When I right click my pinned Explorer on the task bar, inside I have pinned items. For reasons unknown to me all four shortcuts are broken and I want to 're-make' them. I do not seem to be able to get these removed or overwritten. Anyone?
Note: I do not want to unpin Explorer itself...

I get a menu, if I select "unpin from this list" nothing happens...

Re: Cannot get rid of pinned items in Explorer taskbar
I found it...!
Open windows explorer and paste the following in the address bar: %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\AutomaticDestinations
There were three files, I deleted the largest. Then used Task-Manager to Stop Explorer and restart it. The pinned items were finally gone and I since added the right ones back in!
