It seems that the new feature "Fake tile shortcuts added to the Modern UI start menu will not show in the Start8 menu." doesn't work correctly. There exist some duplicates of tiles in the folder "Modern-UI application" of the Start8 menu. Start8 should only show the tile of a main program like Windows 8 in the charm bar (Search).e.g. Asparion Clock+ (http://www.asparion.de/en/clockplus.html) each new clock causes a new tile -> five "Modern-UI applications" with the same name.
Update: The fake tiles are without function.
Those are not the fake tile shortcuts we are refering too.
Fake tile shortcuts are shortcuts created by the hack of making an IE shortcut point to a VBS script file in order to make a metro tile for a non metro application.
OK, but can you do something for this kind of problem. There are many duplicates with no function. You push the app but nothing happens. Sometimes you have to push three or many time to get the correct app.
The same shortcuts should be appearing in the Windows 8 start menu and also do nothing when you click on them.
No, the copy of tiles are shortcuts which open special features. e.g. the second tile of app webradio starts a favorite radio channel or all other clock+ tiles open the config menu.
Interesting.
We will take a look at that next week to see if we can easily detect the difference between the various shortcuts.
