"New" tag on programs in the Start Menu doesn't go away

[DingdongTP]

Hey guys,

I'm having a problem with my start menu on Windows 10 for quite a while now, to the point where it becomes too annoying to ignore.

My Start Menu keeps the "new" tag on every single program I install, even after I dismiss the tag on the programs, and clear the "recently added" section of the menu. I just need to reboot Windows or restart the Explorer process, and every program becomes tagged again and the "recently added" list now has more than 30 entries.

 

What I have tried so far:

-Rebooting the computer

-Restarting Explorer process

-Clearing every tag and the list

-Disabling the recently added list on the system settings (it activates automatically again as soon as I close the settings window)

-Updating Windows to the latest version (I don't use the Insider program)

-Pulling my hair from my head in desperation

 

Thank you for your help!
