Start Menu Corrupted - ms-resource:appDisplayName

If you can identify an update that caused problems then you may be able to uninstall the update.

Anyone know how to remove these two after 1903 upgrade?

Dude... just follow the step by step posted by JoeKitty, clicking the links that he quoted. I did it and solved exactly the same problem.

Just a side note, I also had trouble at first uninstalling due to as missing .xml for the said app. I actually had to make an 1803 VM just to obtain this, I used the Hiren's method again to copy this into AppRepository, once this was done it uninstalled just fine. If anybody is getting a similar error for the HolographicFirstRun App I can post the .xml.

When I ran the command in Powershell, I get an error saying it can't find the .xml file. If this is the problem you had, could you post your the one you used?

finally! solved with w1903.329 !! 2 years!!

It was also mentioned somewhere (the link I dont find right now), that it jut should be fixed, but it still isnt under known issue list.

Sandbox is totally broken too now:

they stated this in the .329 changelog: "Updates an issue that may cause the name of an unsupported application to appear as default text, such as “ms-resource:AppName/Text” in the Start menu after upgrading the operating system. "

i already solved the AppName/Text last week with some trick found in this forum but the ms-resource:appdisplayname was still there

note: they wrote "such as" so i think they solved both issues

@ninja750 Nice. And what did I say? IT IS NOT FIXED.

Does this solution work for Windows Sandbox start menu as well?

No. Sandbox is totally broken at this point, and it wont ever get fixed I guess, because there are just 10 people working at MS in the Windows 10 team.
