Windows 8 Apps for TLB - DocCruncher - 01-28-2013

Have been using Classic Shell Start Menu on Windows 8 and noticed it has a menu item called "Apps" which brings up a list of all installed Win 8 Apps in the Start Menu. Maybe I missed something here but I can't seem to be able to duplicate the Apps menu in TLB on Windows 8. Is this currently possible in TLB?

Thanks;
Doc

Press "Predefined" button and select "Programs" when you create the menu (see the attached screenshot). This will create the virtual folder the classic "Start->All Programs" menu.

I already have that one. That provides a listing of ALL installed programs... NOT what I am asking for.

Notice the attached JPEG on my first entry on this post; it shows only Windows 8 Apps (not all installed programs but Apps from the Windows App store plus the default Windows 8 apps).

Any ideas on how to show ONLY Windows 8 Apps?

Thanks;

Hmm... All I've found is shell:AppsFolder. You can type this in the windows explorer address bar and open this folder. Then drag the icon from the address bar from windows explorer to TLB using the right mouse button. When you drop it select "Create Menu Here".

But... this folder cantain all applications Confused

I'll try to make the plugin to show menu with Metro applications only.
