Windows 10: Win 10: where are pinned tiles in start menu located?

With Win10 pro 21H2 I found that a pinned tile in start menu is broken no icon, though it works as a link. It is the Edge tile to be precise, and the broken icon occurred after a restore system. The rest is ok. Work done:The same broken icon of Edge was also in the taskbar. There, I was able to locate the link right-click, properties, change icon. Instead there is no way I could solved the issue with the tale. I also deleted it and created it again, with no solution.

Windows 10 Start Menu Pinned Tiles Location?

Hi

I've been searching for a while and i can't find where the pinned tiles
in Start menu are located.

All I can find is a list of folders that doesn't have the pinned tiles:

This doesn't have what I need:

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\StartMenu\Programs

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu

This doesn't exists at all:

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\TileDataLayer\Database

Is there any location or registry value/key where I can find the PINNED TILES in Start Menu?

I read somewhere that there is a database... does anyone know where is it located?

Thanks in advanced

 

Windows 10 Start Menu Pinned Tiles Location?

Where are the start menu pinned tiles located in Windows 10? Example: I pin Weather, Notepad, and Calculator to the start menu. Where does this data get written? In Windows 7 it was under Program Data>Microsoft>Windows>Start Menu. It appears to have moved
in Windows 10. Is it a folder I just haven't been able to find, or is it a registry key now?

Thanks

Pin to start menu icon cache

Are you able to pin It to the start menu with the new icon because for me it shows up in the programs list and everywhere else as changed and new it’s just when pinned to start

just want to clarify. In all locations including start menu all programs and in control panel and everywhere ! Except for when you pin it to the start menu. Right clicking the shortcut and click pin to start or search and pin to start, that’s the only place I don’t see it... can you pin it to start menu where the tiles are and show me how it looks? In your screenshot I get the same result and it works it’s really when you “pin to start menu” where the tiles are.
