An enpty tile. Why is that? Just mentioning that I dowloaded W10 with the free update that ended December 31.
 

Solution
Just right click each app you want and select 'Pin to Start' and you will have tiles. You can resize the titles by right clicking them and change the size and you can click and drag the edge of the start menu to adjust the size.
