Can only pin ONE store app to Start10 menu

For example, let's say I want to pin weather and a dictionary to my Start10 menu (Windows 7 or Modern Style), I can't do that. Pinning the dictionary will replace Weather. If I then want to pin another app from the store, like a calculator, it will replace the dictionary app, and so on.

Basically, it seems that you can only pin one store app to Start10 at a time.

Can we get a fix for this? I have Start10 installed on 4 computers and I have the same issue on all of them (so it's not an error on my end).

I am experimenting the same behavior with my Start10, while using Modern menu style.

When I pin an UWP app it replaces other UWP app which was pinned before.

Edit: I found the issue and a workaround.

When you pin a UWP app a shortcut named 'App' is created in the folder:

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\StartMenu

If you pin another app, this shortcut gets overwritten. If you manually rename the shortcut and create another you will be able to repeat the steps for as many UWP apps that you need.

Please fix this issue in future releases.
