Short-cuts in start menu are always cleaned up.

[NamelessUzer]

Short-cuts in start menu are always cleaned up when Windows 10 update to a new version. In other words short-cuts in the folder %HomePath%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Scoop Apps are always cleaned up.
Is there any way to add these short-cuts back quickly? Or could you please provide a new command to add them back?

This is a limitation of Scoop. WIndows Update forces resetting the shortcuts. You can reset all apps by using this command:

scoop reset *

I believe reset is too heavy and too slow for adding short cuts back.

[NamelessUzer]

some command like 'scoop fix shortcuts' can break the limitation easily. And it is not so heavy as 'scoop reset *'

scoop reset app1 app2 app3
Corrected: It's

scoop reset app1
scoop reset app2 
scoop reset app3

Because wildcard is heavily.

scoop fix shortcuts does not really help, because not all apps have shortcuts and it still need to walk through all apps to find out those shortcuts. scoop reset <what you need> should be more suitable for you.

If one wants to add all the short-cuts back, Is there any difference between scoop reset * and scoop reset app1 app2 app3 ...?

scoop fix shortcuts does not really help, because not all apps have shortcuts and it still need to walk through all apps to find out those shortcuts. scoop reset <what you need> should be more suitable for you.

app.json files save if a short-cut is necessary for an app. scoop fix shortcuts command can read the app.json files to decide to add which shortcuts. scoop reset app is surely heaier than what I want.

And for anyone else looking at this, Windows 10 update also breaks any scoop apps you may have set to auto start.

It will be better if we create a shortcut folder inside scoop dir and link it with start menu shortcut folder.
