windows 8 Apps from Start sreen have disappeared! And I want them back.

[News Bot]

Hi,

I've a client that the start screen of Windows 8 Pro is empty. It just shows the "Start" word and the user identification.

When we try to use find, it always display 0 items for Applications! If we choose to show all applications, the screen still empty. It seams that it has no applications.

To be able to go to the Desktop he has to search for something, like Desktop, and then select a definition option like Change Screen Resolution, so it change to the Desktop Window.

I've logged in with Administrator user and the start screen looks OK, so it seams to be something just for that user.

I've already deleted the profile and loaded it again. It is a rooming profile. It loaded again se same way. So, I think the problema is already saved on the server profile.

Well, it loaded with a difference. Before delete it, the user can't even do a search because it showed a message saying something like "The application can't be searched"!? At least after load it again the search works for settings and files, but

still always result in zero items found in Apps.

How can I get the apps back?

Regards,

Pedro
