By default Windows 8 doesn’t have a Start Menu to display non-metro apps you’ve installed (though the Programs and Features in Control Panel displays programs installed by you) but WDP comes pre-installed with Metro style and other Windows app, you can view all installed apps in windows 8 easily, here is how.
1. Use Win + F command to open the search pane,
2. Click Apps, installed apps and programs will be shown in alphabetical order (A-z), you can use the scroll bar at the bottom to see apps on the screen. You can pin, unpin and uninstall them by right-clicking on the app.
Update: To view all apps in Windows 8.1
Press Win key to launch start screen, now click on down arrow which shows all apps by name, you’ve the options to view them by date installed, most used and by category.
I can’t find programs. What is “Win and F” command that it csays I can use to locate programs? Plus, where can I get info that everyone assumes I was born with aka Windows 8 101?
The date is wrong It was on February 6th 2014 at 3:58 AM. I am positive of this date and time. The pain and confusion is imbedded in my brain, what is left of it. Can you help me? Please help me.

Buying Windows 8 was one of lifes bad decisions

Windows 10 is good, once you use it you’ll never get back to Windows 8.1. If you’re having issues downloading Windows 10 on your computer, use Media Creation tool to upgrade.

I am not very computer literate, but I can just about fumble my way around what I want to do. Or at least I used to be able to. But then I bought windows 8. If you want a lesson on how to make something that works and is quite straight forward into something complicated, just buy windows 8. What is the point of the tile system. Its just change for the sake of change. Well, I must go , got more head scratching to do.
Hope you’re trying Windows 10 technical Preview, if not, give it a try by joining Windows Insider program, you’ll definitely love it.
I had apps screen full of apps. Suddenly one day, may be by my mistake lost all apps. What to do?
Did you refresh you”re pc?If so they are history,restore you”re computer to a earlier date,set you”re own date not the ones provided so you can go back farther some will reappear and others you must reinstall I mistakenly refreshed my pc and now they are history.I fixed it all as I stated.
I am the same it tells me the program is installed, but trying to find it is frustrating.
Ok I can make this so simple now if you have 8.1 all you have to do to find all apps is go directly to you”re P.C. settings menu hit the search key to you”re left at the top it looks like a key hole ,type in all apps. and boom there you be.
