Yes everything is where I wanted it. Since the early days of window 10 I've had a c drive with apps and windows and 4 separate HDD/sdd. 12TB currently. Easier to backup amongst other things. Apart from the occasional glitch (like today) it has all worked well with no noticeable speed impediment...

Okay so I restored location of Music to default (although it's not where I want to store my Music files) and then was able to delete the Music folder in the first SSD. I did the same for Documents. Hope it hasn't screwed up anything else in the process. Thanks for the tip.

Until recently I have been using one SSD with 2 main folders marked documents and music, to store the relevant files. (Windows and apps are on a separate NVM.) I have now added a second SSD and moved all my document folders/files to root on the original SSD and all my music files to the other...

@Edwin, Thanks for the clarity Edwin but I had worked that out before your modified post. I have it working now although it really shouldn't need such faffing about. But I still don't know how you got it working with a shortcut to Sharpen Ai when I had to use a shortcut to Sharpen Ai External...

@rick99 Yes I saw your post and tried several things such as rebooting (just in case), unpinning etc but no joy. I have now got it working but to say it's been a slog is the polite way of putting it. Not helped that I spotted that there were 2 different exe files to launch one of the apps and...

@Edwin, Great so you got Sharpen to show up. Photo Ai worked as it should with me so no issue there. Can you please be a little clearer which folders you used to cut and paste from. Thanks

@Wynona No that's completely wrong. They are and always have been totally separate apps. If you read what I wrote it should be clear which ones work and which don't.

@Wyona, Topaz Sharpen AI Topaz deNoise AI Topaz Mask Others like: Topaz Photo Ai Topaz Gigapixel Ai Topaz JPEG to Raw place the shortcut in Start>All Apps Beware these are large files if you want to download them and try. I'm coming to the same inevitable conclusion that the Start Menu isn't...

Yes as I mentioned above 3 out of 6 files (from Topaz) work ok, including Photo Ai. It's Sharpen deNoise and Mask that don't. Give it a try if you wish and see if it works for you.

@Edwin. Nope, the Topaz Sharpen exe file is 3.9GB !

Well I had another look after a good night’s sleep. Seems to be 3 out of 6 apps from just one company (Topaz LLC) don’t play ball ie they won’t place a shortcut into the Start>All Apps menu. Tried it on another PC with Win 11 and same problem. Uninstalled and reinstalled again and same...

@Edwin...yes I am signed in as Admin @trumpy81... yes I thought that too so rebooted...but still the same issue. My bed is calling...tomorrow I'll check on another PC with these apps. Dave

@trumpy81 Yes I can pin them to the taskbar. But following the rest of your suggestion it still didn't show up in Start>All Apps. I'm going to give up for the night and have a look on another Win 11 pc tomorrow. Thanks for your help

@glasskuter If you read what I have written you'll see I have tried that and it failed.

@OAT That's interesting as the apps that won't show up in Start>All Apps don't show when I do shell:AppsFolder May be there is something strange with these apps although they work perfectly when run.
