In Windows 11 24H2, at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs, I see these folders:
  • Windows Accessories
  • Windows PowerShell
  • Windows System
  • Windows Tools
I don't want them.

Sadly, experience in Win10 suggested that simply deleting them could be a bad idea. The alternate suggestion was to hide them, and then set File Explorer not to display hidden items.

Is this also the case in Win11?
