Good evening I can't find the start menu icons, I tried the two paths:
"%programdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu"
"%appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu"
But I couldn't find the program icons, any ideas?
thanks

This is the path:

C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu

PS: The AppData folder is hidden, to see it you must enable viewing hidden files. Alternatively, if you have Open Shell installed or similar, right click on All Programs and select to Open it (your user) or to Open all users.
