Add games from the Epic Games Launcher to the start menu?
How can I add installed games from the Epic Games Launcher to the Windows 10 Start menu? As a tile? It works everywhere and with any other game. (Steam, Uplay) Only Epic Games seems to have to go its own way again. The launcher is truly unique.
I’m digging a body with the mail, but maybe there’s someone who’s just asking the same thing. I don’t know why Epic Games does not provide the option to add a game in the start menu. But you can reach a detour in the following way: Create normal link -> Windows button + R press -> shell:start menu -> Enter folder with a part of the Start Menu links opens, here simply drag the links into the “Programs” folder as a whole or drag them into a subfolder with a name of your choice, then also pop up in the Start menu. Nevertheless, it would be better if Epic Games would simply implement this function in the future.
I know I come 3 years late but thanks it worked after 3 days that is finally in the startmenu
With right click on the game tried?
With me was right there
Even with the menu, which opens through the right-click, it could not be moved to the start menu.
I also tried the game simply from the desktop to the menu with the mouse. Neither did it.
Can you do dirket when installing, otherwise simply open the installation folder and then drag or copy the .exe file to the start screen.
To do this, one would have to know where Epic even plays. About the launcher itself, you do not come to the installation directory of the games.
When you install a game, he always asks you where to install it. Apart from that, I think you can change this in the settings under Download settings.
