I am looking in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\
and all my apps are there. However, when I open All Apps
or type something into Search Windows
box, not all the apps are there - some are simply not found. Why is this?

Windows search results only include things that are in indexed locations. You can open "Indexing Options" to see which locations are included. By default, the "Program Files" folder is not included.
The programs that appear under "All Apps" are the ones that have shortcuts in "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\". Some programs may choose to install themselves without adding anything to that menu. But you can always create a shortcut and place it in the folder yourself.
Your claim that programs in All Apps appear under that path is only partially correct. Some apps appear there, some do not. – Dmitri Nesteruk – 2015-12-19T09:36:43.347

work? 9. What processes are running in the background when this first happens (please view these without any open applications.)? 10. Does this happen to all users? 11. If not, which types ofusers does this happen to? – RookieTEC9 – 2015-10-26T00:22:57.787
