I figured it was time to start a new thread on this issue, as the thread I was posting this in (at least to me) no longer felt like the same issue that uid://403861 was having. So, instead of taking her thread on to much of a sidetrack, I felt a new thread was better.
So, onto my question.
The first picture is a screen shot showing the directory location of "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs". This is of course where the "All Apps" part of Metro primarily gets its list of icons from to populate that screen. The other location is "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs" (where xxx is your profile name). Take note of the folder name as it appears on the screen in the red box. It says Windows System .
Picture #2 shows the contents of that folder. Take note what the Window Title bar shows (red arrow). It does not call the folder Windows System ; rather, it says the folder name is System Tools. However, something in windows does think it is Windows System as the address line lists the path as such (green arrow).
Now, if I do click on the address bar, it does change to "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\System Tools" as shown in Picture #3.
I then open a command window, and go to the following path: "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs". The screen shot in Picture #4 shows the directory listing at that location. The red arrow shows the folder name as System Tools. There is no folder at that location called Windows System.
I then go to investigate the actual folder itself. If I right-click on the folder, I get the window shown in Picture #5. Notice that the title bar, as well as the folder name (in red boxes) shows up as Windows System.
However, if I click on the sharing tab, the name of the share (if it was enabled) would be System Tools as indicated by the red arrow. Yet, the title of the window still says Windows System. This is Picture #6
Finally, I go look at the details of a shortcut in this location. This is what I'm showing the last picture, which is #7. The item in the green box is the shortcut that I have the property window open for, and its my shortcut to the Control Panel. If you look at the path that the shortcut is located it (red arrow, Control Panel Properties), you see the last part of it, and it clearly says the location is System Tools. The Red arrow pointing to the Windows Explorer Title Bar says the same thing, yet the Windows Explorer Address Bar shows Windows System.
So, my question is, what is going on? What is the actual folder name? Is it Windows System or System Tools? How do I fix this?
Thanks in advance,
