    Right click with the mouse on this icon you want to remove. You will see the falling menu with options. Choose 'Remove from this list' option and this is it.

    Start Menu Icons Can't Be Removed, solved


    Sorry for posting in such an old thread.
    Found this issue on my fathers computer recently and had to register to answer the thread. :)

    Right click the startbutton -> choose properties ->
    On Start Menu tab, choose Customize > check "Enable Context Menus and dragging and dropping". Click Ok then "Apply" > OK

    Think this solves the issue.
    Kind regards,

    Damas

    In addition, resetting the Pin to area in the Start Menu may sort this as well.
