How to remove the shortcut from the game?

Hello!
Help solve this problem.
After uninstalling the game, there was a shortcut in the start menu and I can't remove it.



When you click on delete, the "Programs and Features" window opens, but since I deleted the game, it is not there, respectively. If you click on the file location, the game browser opens where it is impossible to perform any action with this shortcut.



I read in Google that the shortcuts are on the path:
C:Users username AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuPrograms
C:ProgramDataMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuPrograms

But it's not there.

Is it possible to select "Delete" through the context menu? I generally hate the eight and almost never used it, but try installing the Unlocker utility and using it to remove it. Or clean it up with CCleaner. It should clean up all junk and unused labels

Well, this is probably another of the bugs of the eight, which everyone here is so praising. It has not yet been finalized and left as it is. And now they write a new ten. To remove a shortcut in the All Applications menu, you must open the system folder where they are stored. These are:
C:Users YourUserName AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindows Start MenuPrograms
C:ProgramDataMicrosoftWindows Start MenuPrograms.

Try this:
Win + r
type shell:recent
Multiply by zero there.

What is there to multiply by zero? There's a "Recent Documents" folder that doesn't have this shortcut.

Thanks for the advice, but I wrote in my first post 4 days ago that there is no shortcut in these system folders.

On the second screen tried "parameters - clear information"?

Check in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion GameUX Games
Remove spaces, without them the forum engine does not skip

thanks eroppo
. Deleted it.
I thought that somewhere in the registry this label was registered, but I just didn’t know where to look.
