Windows 10: Is it possible to add a folder to the start menu tiles?

I want to add my Screenshots folder to the "productivity" section of the start menu. Like this:

It doesn't let me add it anywhere in the start menu though. I've googled around and still don't know if windows allows you to do that.

Does anybody know if it's possible?

Is it possible sort the start menu tiles alphabetically?

Apparently not, the option is so freaking quirky!
I have to set them in the preferred order manually as well.
Suggest: create a List folder of your own as per screenshot (left side)

 

Title for Start Menu Tiles folder

WIN 10 offers the possibility of creating start menu tiles folders. That's great.

- Unfortunately, we cannot set a title per tiles folder. It' s pity ...

- When will MS make this small, but really useful next design step (that Google offers since quite a while)?

 

Give Office 2016 Start Menu Tiles Colored Backgrounds


After upgrading to Office 2016, I have noticed that the start menu tiles lost their colorful backgrounds and were reverted back to the accent color. Here is how to fix that so the tiles have colored backgrounds.

This guide shows you go to go from this:
Attachment 113103
To this:
Attachment 113105

Step 1
Navigate to your Start Menu folder
Typically can be found at: "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"

Step 2
Find the shortcut for one of the Office suite apps and rename it to anything you want.

Step 3
Reopen the Start Menu, the page will refresh and the tile will now be colored (assuming you have pinned it on the front page)

Step 4 (Optional)
Rename the shortcut back to its original name, the tile will still remain colored.
