Can you please make this an option in the addon's settings? yeah this is a left over from development. I'll make the viewtype a config option in the next release.

But the add lnk or add custom path might take a bit longer because i want to update the structure of my code (it's quite a mess) before i add new features. Just to clarify, it will be two new things - An option to define custom "start menu" paths. - On create custom entry provide a selection to choose a lnk/desktop file as template. Is that what you want? @mzup Thanks I'll have a look at it on the week end. I might would contact you, if you don't mind, and ask you to execute one or two powershell scripts to get a better view on the problem.

Issue i have with that is that it launches the app but then since the bat file ends it brings kodi back to foreground.

I have some basic python knowledge, I started learning a year ago for automating various tasks on my system because I switched from Windows to Linux. I have Windows only in my laptop now, my main PC and my HTPC are now running Ubuntu. I was using AutoIt for this purpose on Windows, AutoIt is Windows only so I had to find something else. I have no issue reading your code even with my basic python knowledge, so I think it's not mess at all. It's very readable, keep up the good work RE: AppLauncher Addon release 0.8.0 - The start menu for Kodi - Takezo36 - 2018-08-06 @mzup I didnt get to do much this weekend. So i had a look at the log but didnt find anything. For your Workaround ... those store apps are hard to track...the way i implemented that you got to call them like this so that the tracking works Exec=explorer Args=shell:AppsFolder\<appid> I get the appid from the powershell cmd Get-StartApps Would you mind trying something... could you copy the content of <kodihome>\addons\plugin.program.applauncher\resources\lib\appreader.ps1 and paste it in a powershell window and see if you got any errors there and see if you got a top level entry store apps in the resulting json. You can also just send me the output but mind you that will be the content of your start menu. Not that im going to do anything with it but debugging but just that you are aware of it and not feel tricked into sending me private data.
