    Metro Shortcuts fails to display all the shortcuts


    Hello all,
    I have installed a software which will place 4 shortcuts in Start Menu->Programs-> <Vendor folder>. But i could see only 1 shortcut as metro shortcut. Where as if i open the file location, i could see all the 4 shortcuts in the location.
    For example, Bomgar application installs 4 shortcuts in "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Bomgar" folder but only 1 shortcut is displayed in metro.
    Please find attached screenshots.
    Can someone suggest to get all the 4 shortcuts display in metro.

    Thanks.

    :)

    Windows 10 | All Apps | Metro Apps | & Cortana

    I was trying to get a shortcut to bring up the All Apps menu from the start screen. The one that displays metro apps. I can't access my start menu (due to some restrictions set up by my school), so I can't access my metro apps unless I open the store and
    open the app from there. I wanted to pin the metro apps to my desktop so I could still use them. I found out where the shortcuts are located

    C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Application Shortcuts

    In there are folders for each of my metro apps with a shortcut inside. The problem is, each shortcut is not linked to anything, so I still can't open them.

    I'm wondering, is there a way to open metro apps without using the start menu?

    (When searching in Cortana, some apps show up and some don't. Either way, she doesn't recognize that it's downloaded already so clicking on it brings me to the store)
