links and icons disappeared after installing V2 Universal apps


Recommended Posts

I had downloaded the trial, and then I bought the universal license. No matter what I did, the trial kept coming up rather than the Licensed version.

I then uninstalled the trial version  from the control panel and did a reinstall of the new downloaded licensed version.

Now I have no links on the desktop, start menu or quick launch menu. I tried reinstaling and no links appear anywhere.

I couldn't find the installation location so I searched onlne and found the location in the WindowsApps folder. I manually set up links on my desktop, but the have only a generic icon.

How can I fix this so they show up with appropriate icons on the desktop and are are also present in the start menu? (I can then drag them to my quick launch menu myself)

 

Thanks

Mark
