  1. Start menu pinned tiles lost


    Hello to all,


    Yesterday I have done the following Windows update:

    https://support.microsoft.com/nl-nl/help/4551762/windows-10-update-kb4551762


    Now I see that I also moved to Version 1909, too.


    … and ever since all my pinned programs in the Start menu are gone not the software themselves.

    I had created a few groups and pinned some shortcuts, but now I got the reset version and seeing a group called Productivity with MS Edge, Office, Photos, Mail and Store.


    How can I make them come back?

    Or at least how can I prevent this from happening again in another update?


    Of course I can try and recreate them, but why did this happen?


    Sorry to ask but I could only find some similar issues that were old and their suggestions did not work out.

    :)

    Only "pin to start" (as a tile) and not "pin to start menu"?

    And "pin to start list" is still there in the latest build? Yup.

    Give Office 2016 Start Menu Tiles Colored Backgrounds


    After upgrading to Office 2016, I have noticed that the start menu tiles lost their colorful backgrounds and were reverted back to the accent color. Here is how to fix that so the tiles have colored backgrounds.

    This guide shows you go to go from this:
    Attachment 113103
    To this:
    Attachment 113105

    Step 1
    Navigate to your Start Menu folder
    Typically can be found at: "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"

    Step 2
    Find the shortcut for one of the Office suite apps and rename it to anything you want.

    Step 3
    Reopen the Start Menu, the page will refresh and the tile will now be colored (assuming you have pinned it on the front page)

    Step 4 (Optional)
    Rename the shortcut back to its original name, the tile will still remain colored.

    Enjoy *Wink

    Start menu pinned tiles lost

    Only "pin to start" (as a tile) and not "pin to start menu"?

    It does not work like this. You have to shift + right click the corresponding exe file or a shortcut in Windows Explorer to get the "pin to start lis" option. But be aware that even though you can choose to pin a certain program to the start list there is no guarantee that it actually works. On my system it does not work for most programs, i've only been able to add a handful of them. The only thing that does work ist "pin to start" which adds them to thw right side of the sart menu as a tile.

    Seriously,I hope this is a bug. Because a start menu that does not let you add your own programs is worthless. If I'm forced to use tiles I will be better off using the start screen.
