NU 14 Cleanup erases pinned items from Excel & Word

This is a repeat post; I didn't receive any usable answers when I posted this query last year. The issue still stands.

 

Using NU 14 on Windows 7 64 bit computer. I have Office 2010 programs Excel and Word pinned to the taskbar. I pin often used files to the Word and Excel icons so I can right click on Excel or Word and select a particular file to open. NU 14 "Clean Your Disks" erases the pin references, and I then must open the desired files one at a time and re-pin them to the icons. Is there a way to have NU 14 not erase these pins, or perhaps a file somewhere I can save and restore after running NU14 clean?
