How do I add things to the start list and not the panel

Have just installed Windows 10 and when I try to add things to the start list they only appear in the panel start and not in the column start list where I want them.

 

C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

for example.

(Windows key + R,
shell:Startup
)

Note: if you use e.g. Classic Shell (free) you will not only have a great customisable start menu, but Startup will be shown as in Win 7 etc.

Also this tutorial in this forum

- just search for

You're welcome. A new OS can be a puzzle at first.
