Hi.

At now, there is no application to create custom tiles in windows 10.

Maybe Stardock can make a application like oblytile witch win10 supoport?

Hi, this would be great!!!!! I really loved OblyTile, but with Windows 10 there is no program with the same possibilities, there are some similar ideas, but not as good as it. For example Pin More from the Windows Store, but it is only for some games programs like Steam or Origin it allows pin your games, also folders or documents but there is no straight option for Regular Windows Apps like OblyTile had...

Please Stardock go for it, I will buy it for sure if you get it done ;)

Regards,

Seba.

As time goes on and more and more programs are made compatible with Win 10 you'll find that one of those programs developed by Stardock is called Tiles. There are only a few at the moment.

To check the current Stardock Software compatibility list for Windows 10:

I'm sure the devs will get to it as it is a popular program.

I was hoping for an alternative to Oblytile from Stardock as well since they make some great Windows customization tools. I have tried some of the alternatives on the windows store like Better Startmenu and TileCreator, but they caused problems on my computer (possibly because they have not been kept updated, I'm not sure). It would be great if Stardock made a tool for customizing all start menu tiles (apps, programs, games, etc)! I would definitely buy it.

Does this help?  It's a tutorial for creating tiles on Windows 10.

Thanks for the link, but that video suggests using TileCreator, which is one of the apps I have tried. It hasn't been updated since Sept. 2015 and seems to have some issues with newer builds of windows 10 (I tried both "Better Startmenu" and "TileCreator" so I am not sure which one messed up my computer, but there seemed to be some bugs in both apps). I would trust a program made by Stardock more than a random dev who may or may not update/support their app after they launch it. :/
