Start10 not picking up all the installed software

July 22, 2021 2:50 AM from

Hi i have installed Start10 and I think it is a great program. However it has not picked up all the software installed on the computer. For example it has not picked up any of the Office programs installed. A few others are missing.
Is there a way to add programs to the list. I can see add a folder but can’t see how to add (say) word to the list of programs?

My computer is just running windows10 home with one ssd and is just a standard HP computer.

thanking you in advance.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. All your application should be listed under "All Program" menu. But, you can also add any application or folders into your Start10 Left panel.

Right Click on the folder or application you wanted to appear on the left panel of Start10. (In Windows Explorer)
Select/Click "Pin to Start"
On Start10 click "All Programs"
That folder or application you "pinned to start", will appear here. Right click on it.
Select/Click "Pin to Start Menu (Start10)
This will make the application or Folder appear there.

Thanks
