I've got hundreds of pinned applications in my list most of which are duplicates. Is there a quick way to fix this?
Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Have you tried unpinned each that is duplicate?
Thanks

There are several hundred of them. I just thought there might be a quicker way. There are only about 10 that I want to keep. I was a beta tester for Start 11. I don't know if a beta version caused a problem or not.
Also...why would they be duplicated, e.g. Microsoft Excel should only be pinned once.
Hello,
I have forwarded your problem/question to Stardock Support Team for their assistance. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We appreciate your feedback and patience.

wimagine7,
Can you think of anything that may have happened around the time the things duplicated?

No, other than I was installing Start 11 beta's and running Start 10 at the same time.
I wish to report that I have the same issue.
I didn't use the Start11 version of the menu for several months (a year or so, back then I did not have this issue), but when I turned it on again, I had at least 4 duplicates of at least 25 different programs.
I don't remember which version I had prior to updating to the latest version (1.47, non-steam) today, but it did nothing.
I also tried to disable the "synchronize with OS" feature, and logged out. That did nothing.
And then I tried re-enabling it, and log out. The same there.
The Windows default start menu has no duplicates.
Disabling the feature will not remove extra pinned items as it detects new pins rather than force deleting things.
We shall double check the logic as that should clearly not have happened and I am curious as to what could have triggered it.
Also noticed that switching between Win11 and Win10 mode makes it look like this:
Sadly, I can't remember how it was back when I made my first comment. Currently on version 1.47
