Cant find installed programms

After I installed Windows 10 from Windows 7 I noticed that if I searched for a programm such as lets say "iTunes" it won't show it to me as a programm but instead it will take me to the programm files. How can I make it show every program I had installed from windows 7?
Thank you in advance ;)

If you click Start > All Apps... You will find your programs on those lists in folders. Just expand the folder to get the executable.

For frequently used programs right click the executable and select "Pin to Start" or "Pin to Taskbar" so you always have it handy.

Have you rebooted since the upgrade completed? Maybe it just needs to index. My spot checks don't have me missing any programs I've noticed yet.

Another thing to try is resolving compatibility issues. Navigate to the executable on C:/ and right click > properties > run in compatibility mode for 8.1 + run as admin
