    How to make Windows App Shortcuts on Windows Desktop


    I wish to make shortcuts to Windows Apps on my Desktop.I have found them in the protected Windows Apps folder. I have taken ownership so I can view and run the files. I have copied required DLL files into a Windows Path folder.Under Windows Desktop usual rules of running a program, they should run...But, the EXE files still do not run.ie Microsoft Photos & the new 'Snipping Tool' actually "ScreenSketch.exe".How do I make Windows Apps launch from shortcuts on my Windows Desktop?

    :)
