Windows 10: Why does the Start Screen appear whenever an app is closed

I am trying to set up a surface Pro 4 for my wife. I have Windows 10 on my desktop but the start screen only appears when I click on the "start" button.

All Apps doesn't appears in Start Menu

I'm sorry I'm not make me clear. It's not a link, it is the All Apps list that normally appears in the Start Menu.
My problem is that All Apps list vanished from Start Menu.
I can't run any App because I can't see them anymore. See the image captured from my screen.





I hope that clears my question.

Thanx

 

Create Start Screen Tiles for applications which appears on Start Menu

• 
  Hello All,
  
  
  I was wondering how to add the applications appearing on Windows 10 Start Menu to Windows Start Screen, that too in a specific location on the start screen, with a specific tile size and under a specific application group? Do you think it's feasible? I know it's easily done interactively by right clicking the start menu app and pinning it to Start but this has to done for the enterprise users so would like to see if the task could be accomplished using a GPO or Script.
  
  
  Kind Regards,
