    Can't delete icons/shortcuts on the desktop unless I pin/unpin them


    hi,

    I can't delete icons/shortcuts on the desktop unless I pin/unpin them to start or taskbar.
    after right-click, pressing "delete" or from the keyboard or after dragging them to the bin icons still there. after I pin/unpin them (randomly start/taskbar) I'm able to drag them to the recycle bin, and they're gone

    In addition to that, some of the shortcuts to get pinned - after right-click, pressing "pin to ___", and then second right-click, it shows "pin to ___" instead of "unpin from ___".

    Thanks in advance for your help!
