    Missing Menu Item Windows 10 (Classic Shell)


    This has been appearing since a couple of updates back. I don't know exactly when it started as I dont play the games that are normally kept there very often.

    Anyone know what caused(s) this and more importantly, how to fix it? It's not causing a problem, its just very annoying.

    Look in the Classic Shell settings under this category and see if it appears as a choice. If so, set it to not display. I don't seem to have that one.

    You have it listed right under "SEPARATOR".

    I checked my settings and it looks just like yours does. I changed to something else and it switched fine, when I switched back, it looked the same as my first screen shot.

    The folder is empty, so I'm guessing I can change it to display something else. I know it used to have some actual games in it, but I don't recall what or how long ago.

    To test, I set my "game" to display as a link, and sure enough.....

    Just set it to not display.......

    Might be just an old throw-back to when Win 7 had actual games, not the "Store" junk today...
