Hi,
When I install my application and go to windows icon->All apps in windows 11, I don't see my application under the folder name. Rather I see the application name directly in Start menu-> All apps->(starting alphabet of application name) . In windows 10 and earlier windows, folder is created and we see the application name under the Start menu-> All apps->(starting alphabet of folder name)-> application folder. When I install the 2 applications which are installed under same folder name then the folder is created in Start menu-> All apps->(starting alphabet of folder name). Please tell if this is an issue in windows 11 or default behavior of Windows 11.

Thank you.

    This is a default behavior of Windows 11. On a rare occasion, it will create a folder for a new application; however, it will default to just showing the application itself in the start menu.
