Nothing in Universal Apps Menu

Win 10  1511 all updates installed.

I noticed on my 2 desktops, I did not have Universal Apps Menu showing. I added it and it is empty.

Did not reboot after adding it. Which I am doing before I submit this post.

Reboot did not help, Menu still empty.

The default Win 10 menu has All Apps showing ok.

Since I only use the desktops  getting updates and some finance programs, I don't know when it got lost.

Do I have to reinstall Start10 or repair reinstall 1511 ?

Please point me in the correct direction.

You need to update to Start10 1.06 or later

Also make sure you have not enabled the setting in Start10 to hide all Universal applications from Start10.

My universal apps are not checked to hide and they are still missing, running version 1.08. How do I get them back?

In the process of installing/reinstalling Start10, I managed to Loose both columns of Start10. That is: when I select the start10 icon I get no window at all!

So I cannot startup applications. I cannot get to settings. Nor does a tiled window of things from the store show up for a long time. Clearly I have no access to a crucial data structure.  Please help me to get back on the right track w/o starting over from an OS refresh!

its actually under DESKTOP, advanced - 'hide universal applications from the windows 7 style menu' (which actually effects all styles)

I have had version 1.08 and that check mark has been unchecked. Now what?

I'm running 1.11 and have not Universal Apps showing like the OP. They use to be there...

 

Update:

I rebooted and it appears Win10 had updates, they applied and then the Universal Apps were back.
