Uninstall a program tile in Windows 8.1

Question

How to add "Uninstall a program" tile to Windows 8.1 start menu?

I want shortcut tile to Windows standard "Uninstall a program" window, Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features

Basically, a tile shortcut to this

I tried OblyTile, but there is no support for this action. Also tried Googling, but without success.

You want a tile/app that will allow you to uninstall other apps? — Karan, Commented Jun 20, 2015 at 17:53

Easy, I just did it with out any complicated steps.

Push the Windows key and hold it in while you push the S key.
Search will come up.
Type "control panel" into search.
Click on the control panel icon.
When it opens find the "program and features" icon and right click it for a menu.
Click on "Pin to Start" and you are done. Go to your Start page and it should be there.

Even better! Just note that Control Panel needs to have Large / Small icons view instead of Category.

Create a shortcut to appwiz.cpl, or to rundll32.exe with the following arguments:

rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL appwiz.cpl,,0
