Currently on Windows 11 24H2, build 26100.1150, and it seems that I am unable to edit/remove/add shortcuts from the Action Center as the edit button is missing in the lower right (should be next to the cog one):

Any workarounds to either re-add the edit button or remove/add shortcuts?
Thank you kindly in advance!

I don't think so! 🤷‍♂️
Best case is, put your Favs in the top row, (which opens first), and drag the useless ones to the bottom row, via Drag N Drop...

Are they trying to save 50kb of code to lower the ISO size?

I mean, I can understand adding the drag'n'drop feature, but not being able to remove stuff kinda makes it seem cluttered.

Oh well, thanks everyone for your input, will mark as solved since apparently it's intended. Clearly microsoft knows what's best for users :eyeroll:

Quiero decir, puedo entender que se agrega la función de arrastrar y soltar, pero no poder eliminar cosas lo hace parecer un poco desordenado.

Bueno, gracias a todos por sus comentarios. Lo marcaré como resuelto, ya que aparentemente es lo que se pretendía. Claramente, Microsoft sabe qué es lo mejor para los usuarios.:pone los ojos en blanco:
I have the same concern. I googled and found this post. MIcrosoft, please fix this!
