    Applications still showing on Start menu after powershell deletion


    Hi,

    I've used powershell to remove some apps (like Xbox games).

    On one account, it cleaned up the start menu just fine.

    Second account, they were showing on the start menu, so I ran powershell again and verified everything was gone that I wanted, but Xbox is still showing on the menu list. *Not* as a tile, but in the "All Apps" list. I have also tried looking at the Start Menu in File Explorer for that User and can not see the App listed.

    Suggestions?

    Thanks,

    How to show MOST USED apps in Start Menu?

    Hi Jeff,

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    I will surely help you to fix the issue with Start Menu.

    This issue could have occurred due to incorrect Start settings.

    I suggest you to try the following steps which will help to show most used apps in Start Menu. Check if it helps.


    • Click on Start Button and click on
      Settings.

    • Double-click Personalization.

    • In the left pane click on Start.

    • In the right pane check if the “Show most used apps” slider is
      turned on or not.

    • If not move the slider to
      turn it on.

    • Now check in Start Menu, if it shows most used apps.
    Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with updated status of the issue so that we can assist you further.

    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.
