June 2025 - Display Widget Center not displaying games on App tweaker?

[Incubus32]

Asus DisplayWidget Center's APP Tweaker doesn't show games - Do we have a fix to this specific issue now? 

I opened a thread last year and it was just got closed without any solutions. 

I wonder if ASUS really trying to resolve user issues or maybe this one already flushed down the drain?

So this only got reported internally just now?

There has been multiple reports of this same kind if issue since last year. Including the one I posted that got closed without even a single resolution. Provided all info about that issue but still has fallen into deaf ears.

Hi @Incubus32 ,

Regarding your inquiry about DWC (Display Widget Center), it's designed to display installed programs by enumerating them from the Windows system's Start Menu folder.

Due to security considerations, DWC currently cannot enumerate or support the following types of applications:

• UMP (Universal Windows Platform) type applications that have different installation paths and thus cannot be detected by the standard Start Menu.
• Applications installed via platform-based installers (such as Steam games).

Thank you for your understanding.
