    Windows 10 Pro start menu

    Here's a workaround to add the program to your Start menu. Follow the steps below:

    • Copy and paste the folder location below into the address bar of File Explorer. Press
      Enter to open the folder.
      • %AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
    • Add the shortcut of the program into this folder.
    Let us know how it goes.

    Shortcuts copied to %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs don't show up on the Start Menu

    On the old machine, all shortcuts in %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs have a corresponding tile (but not vice-versa).

    So I naively thought copying those shortcut files would result in tiles being created.

    As this is apparently not the case, how do I cause the tiles for these shortcut files to be created? Alternatively, how do I automate (PowerShell preferred) the creation of those tiles?

    Note: C:\ProgramData\Start Menu\Programs corresponds to the system-wide (machine-scope) list of programs in the Start Menu list, not to the per-user list of programs or to the per-user list of tiles...

    Start menu in appdata

    Windows 10 Start menu is empty

    Hi. Steps 1 and 2 didn't do much but step 3 has restored what looks like the list of original Microsoft apps but no sign of any of the many apps I have installed. And there are no tiles in the start menu. Any suggestions please?
