2.2.1 "VLC" missing from all apps directory.

VLC is missing from the directory in the all apps list in win10. Only vlc skinned and vlc reset are available. Which means if you want to start vlc.exe you need to go to programs/Videolan/vlc/vlc.exe and execute manually.

Tried uninstalling, delete everything and reinstalling with both official stable and beta version. Same thing with all of them.

Same problem.
I have W10 and VLC v2.2.4
Couple of workarounds:
1: Go to /Program Files [x86]/VideoLAN/VLC/vlc, right click on "vlc" to get the pull-down menu, select "create shortcut", which you can post onto your home screen.
2: Go to the same place, right click on "vlc" to get the pull-down menu, and select "Pin to taskbar".

A real solution to the problem would be nice though. :)
