Is this the shell:AppsFolder command or is it something new, related to Edge Chromium?

tomscharbach&nbsp;That is very much the shell:AppsFolder window.

Sunburst&nbsp;Yes, indeed.&nbsp; Not new to or peculiar to Edge C.&nbsp; No less worth sharing &amp; may not be as familiar to some people.Good job recognizing it, though 👍👍&nbsp; It's not a 'common knowledge' thing, usually.Cheers,Drew

Drew1903&nbsp; &nbsp;Thanks.&nbsp; &nbsp;I was wondering whether Edge Chromium was involved.&nbsp;&nbsp;A question of curiosity:&nbsp; How often do you use&nbsp;shell:AppsFolder and why?&nbsp; &nbsp;My use is very limited -- capture/print a full apps list as part of preparation for a clean Windows install on someone else's computer.&nbsp; I doubt that I use it more than once or twice a year.&nbsp; &nbsp;Is the&nbsp;shell:AppsFolder command something you use frequently or think that people would use if it didn't require a command to open?&nbsp; If so, maybe you should suggest in the W10 Insider forums that this is something Microsoft should consider making more accessible to ordinary users in the fall build.
