    I am having problems with some apps not starting


    For some time now, some apps on my windows 10 pc stopped working notably spotify, skype and mediaplayer. When i try to start these apps get an error stating I dont have access to the corresponding files. Starting in admin mode doesn't work. I can't reinstall Spotify because the deinstall-button int the search panel is greyed out and it doesn't even show up in the control panel. Please help!

    :)

    NEWLY added apps are not showing on Start App list

    Hi Tamal,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    1. Is Cortana able to search the apps installed?

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if that helps.

    • Type Start Settings in Search and hit
      Enter.
    • Turn on Show recently added apps in jump list of Start of Taskbar.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

    Thanks

    I am having problems with some apps not starting

    Windows 10 Start menu is empty

    Hi. Steps 1 and 2 didn't do much but step 3 has restored what looks like the list of original Microsoft apps but no sign of any of the many apps I have installed. And there are no tiles in the start menu. Any suggestions please?
