Recalling saved options on next run does not remove pinned apps #57

Closed wired-bc closed 3 months ago

wired-bc commented 4 months ago

A custom selection of removals saves a file - but when the script picks that file up on the next run the option to remove pinned apps from start menu is not applied.

Heya,

@wired-bc I am unfortunately unable to reproduce this issue myself, I do however have an idea what might be causing this.

Clearing the start menu relies on replacing the startmenu binary with one provided by the script. Could you check if in the Win11debloat script folder there's still a folder called Start with a start2.bin file inside?
