Unpinned tiles are gone permanently, leaving a blank space where you cant add or remove anything #482

It seems when I unpinned tiles, not only did they disappear, they're gone permanently. Meaning there is no tile in place, and it shows empty space in the place of the tile. So now in the middle of the row, I have a random space that i can't fill, and I don't want to add another row just to add one tile that could be added to that empty space. (The empty space would show your background if you have one)

**Important to note:

  1. this happened with all the tiles I unpinned, except for 1. Idk why
  2. I had 'Prevent tiles from being dragged" automatically checked, so idk if this contributes to the issue**

Previously, unpinning tiles would just bring up another random tile of any webpage that I was on (from recent activity, or most visited pages, search history etc), and after sorting/removing through a number of tiles, it would bring back the unpinned tile randomly.

This happens a lot to me too. I make backups a LOT thankfully. I can drag the mouse wrong and one will poof be gone. But that backup saved me. Happens even when they are locked.
