Deleted photos showing up in Microsoft start menu thumbnails

 Why Microsoft chose this feature is beyond me.  Zero thought.  Doesn't refresh and shows pictures that you deleted from your computer.  Stupid.  Here's how you fix it in Windows 10 at least.

Go to 

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Windows.Photos_[random]\LocalState\PhotosAppTile

The photos that Microsoft chose to continuously show for no reason is stored here.  Delete the images.

Then in your start menu, you may need to right click on the photo icon in the start menu and select "TURN LIVE TLE OFF" (then turn it back on to refresh)
