I could have sworn I’d made a comment about this earlier, but I guess it didn’t get through—as of a more recent Windows update, pinned apps are missing their highlight effect on hover. I wanted to make sure this issue was known.
Also, I can’t seem to type certain capital letters (like I and U) using the shift key on this platform? I’ve been needing to use caps lock for them.
