After reboot, all applications that I pinned on Newgen simply disappeared and reverted to default applications and widgets. Is this a bug or something?

Is it possible to uninstall this?
VG
^^ You should create a system restore point before installing the pack and whenever you want to restore default Windows look, just restore your system to that restore point.

does it support 1024x600 screen resolution (notebook)?
VG
^^ I think screen resolution should not matter and it should work.
