    App in start menu

    Hi,

    It is possible that the was uninstalled that's why you can't find it anywhere now or the app file was corrupted. As an initial troubleshooting step, we suggest installing the app again and see if it will show on the start menu.

    Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.
