  1. Saving StartScreen


    I would like to save my startscreen (the one I see if I click theWindows icon button left corner).
    In Win 8.1 I use the following procedure:

    Step 1: Open the Run dialog box by hitting Windows key + R.
    Step 2: Type, "%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows" and hit Enter to open Windows Explorer to the location of the Start screen layout files.
    Step 3: Copy the files, "appsFolder.itemdata-ms" and "appsfolder.itemdata-ms.bak" to your backup folder.

    but in Win 10 I see the folder but not the files (even with the hidden items checked).

    Is there another way to save the startscreen?
    I use Win10 Home Edition 64-bit

    thanks in advance.

    :)

    It shows on my computer okay, no .bak file though:

    The only attribute it shows is A, no S or H (System or Hidden).

    Everything Search is a great program for finding files.
