Pinning something to Start11 places item in upper left corner and messes up icon arrangement.

Pinning to Start11 - Windows 10 Style)

Since loading version 1.24, when I pin something to Start11 (Windows 10 style), it winds up in the upper left corner displacing all of the other icons in no pleasant order. It takes some time to arrange icons in Start11, so having to correct this rearrangement is a pain. Added icons have, in the past, wound up on the bottom and could then be placed where needed.  How do we rectify this problem? I looked for a way to download the previous version, but that's not available ... at least I couldn't find it.

How are you pinning?  From within Start11, from inside explorer and from Pin to Start or Pin to Start 11 menu options?

It usually doesn't matter how you are pinning to Start11 (or Start10 or Start8) if you use the following procedure. When I pin something to Start11 (Windows10), it is from an app or shortcut that gives the option to pin to Start11. Remember, this only started after the last update (1.24). Prior to that, I never had a problem with pinning to Start11 or any of the other Start Menus. Pinning an app or shortcut to Start11 worked fine until the update. Icons always were placed below all the other icons. In 11, it forces them into the icons on top and messes up the menu.

I'd just be happy to revert back to the previous version but that doesn't seem possible.
