WideTiles
defines the default Windows Store apps to
appear as wide tiles on the Start screen.
To use this setting you must include the AppId
. The
AppId
is the AppUserModelID
found in the
application's AUMIDs.txt file, which is located in the app package
downloaded from the OEM channel partner portal of the Windows®
Store. You can also include the FirstRunTask
setting
to set a background task to run for each app tile on the
Start screen that you want to be active, or live, by
default.
If you skip a setting, Windows will rearrange the flow of your app tiles around the position of that setting on the Start screen. The flow rearrangement is based on columns and is designed to eliminate gaps. This position may vary based on the screen size, resolution, and DPI of the PC. For more information about these settings, see the associated StartTiles settings topics.
