  • Yes, these programs appear in search results. No new programs appear in the search results. Also, the search shows the programs that I deleted. For example, I deleted Skype and Telegram and installed their counterparts from the Windows Store, but in the search results links to old applications appear, and links to new ones do not appear. I tried rebuilding the index, it does not help
