    So, I just moved my PC to another place and it suddenly started reacting weirdly. The first was trying to login, it was black and nothing was showing. But apparently the PC offset us by a random amount, and we somehow got in. But then something interesting showed up. One, all desktop apps were gone. Two, pulling up the Search Bar bottom left with the text "Search for anything" will have a missing sidebar. Three, icons that I've pinned to my taskbar is missing. And Four, I cannot open any apps except File Explorer, and most of the apps will hide, as if I pressed the minimize button on them but I did not, it happened automatically I can open Control Panel, and checked with Task Manager, surely there was no unknown apps that was randomly installed.

    :)

    Certain apps not showing in Start Menu app list

    So,

    I'm on Windows 10, the latest version, and I have been having one issue. I have certain apps such as Cydia Impactor which doesn't show up in the app list. I can pin it to the start menu but I really want it in the list. This app was originally in the Documents
    folder and I shifted it into the Program Files (Non x86). I am unable to get this app into the Start Menu app list.

    Any solution?
