• Select Pin to Start.

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,

 

Cannot pin Microsoft Solitaire Collection to start menu

I have a new computer. It came with Windows 10 installed. Until a few days ago, Microsoft Solitaire Collection was pinned to the Start Menu. It no longer appears there. Searched for discussions of the problem and found previous descriptions of exactly the
same problem.

None of those suggestions works.

1. In settings->apps, I reset Microsoft Solitaire Collection and restarted. No change.

2. I changed my windows logon to my microsoft account, and restarted.

3. Opened Microsoft Store from the start menu. I was already logged in with my m-soft account. I searched for Microsoft Solitaire Collection. It now indicates it's XBox Live (no idea why), says "This product is installed," and the "Pin to Start" option
is grayed out. When I click play, it's now "Premium Edition" with an Xbox button. "Downloads and Updates" has Microsoft Solitaire Collection modified today.

I want to pin the app to the start menu, to have it as it was when I bought Windows 10 on this machine, rather than the multi-step process of going through the store, etc., etc.

How can that be done?
