I just upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, and there seems to be a limitation on the number of items I can add to the "pinned list" for taskbar items:
Before I upgraded, my list of pinned items was significantly larger. Once I upgraded, it just chose to display the first 12 of the items that were formerly pinned there in Windows 7.
If I unpin an item in the Pinned list, it does then allow me to pin another one, but I'm still stuck at a max of 12 pinned items.
Is there any way to pin more than 12 items to the list? I have a lot of machines I need to remote into, and being able to pin them all is a big time-saver.

It looks like you use Remote Desktop a LOT. While this is not the question asked, you might find a program like mRemoteNG or Terminals better for you anyway.

of interest, the reg key mentioned in http://blogs.technet.com/b/win7/archive/2011/05/10/change-the-number-of-recent-items-displayed-in-windows-7-jump-list.aspx no longer exists, and adding it doesn't seem to change behaviour. Also the UI for changing this through taskbar / start list Properties is gone.

The answer is: yes there is a way. regedit and insert dword 32 bit in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced named JumpListItems_Maximum and set value eg. to 19 (23). – gReX – 2016-04-21T12:46:19.180

@gReX I tried your solution mentioned in the other post (add the reg key) and it worked for me. Now that you have the necessary rep, post the relevant part of your other answer here (a lot of the rest of the answer didn't apply) and I'll mark it as the solution – RSW – 2017-01-20T17:45:48.013

– gReX – 2017-01-20T18:16:10.683@gReX the formatting/readabilty of that answer is pretty bad. Sometimes you gotta prettify your answers – Journeyman Geek – 2017-01-21T07:28:45.463
@gReX The moderators removed the protection on this question so that you can post an answer. (And my rep is too low to see any info on downvotes on that other question)
