Windows 10 start menu tiles missing icons and sometimes tiles with 2.12.1 Writable Volumes

I'm using writable volumes 2.12.1 with W10 ENT edition.  If I do not attach a writable volume, there is no issue with tiles and tile icons, 100% each logon.  If I attach a writable volume, usually all tiles persist but icons for tiles do not across logons.  I've added the snapvol.cfg exclusion for \ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\AppRepository so far.  No UEM in use.

Could you also add the below lines in snapvol.cfg and check if that helps.

exclude_registry=\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Appx

exclude_registry=\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppReadiness

I actually already had those.  Here is my full list in the snapvol.cfg:

#Windows 10 Store Exclusions

exclude_path=\Program Files\WindowsApps

exclude_path=%systemroot%\softwaredistribution

exclude_path=%systemroot%\systemapps

exclude_path=\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\AppRepository

exclude_registry=\REGISTRY\USER\SOFTWARE\RegisteredApplications

exclude_registry=\REGISTRY\USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppHost

exclude_registry=\REGISTRY\USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\CloudStore\Store\Cache

exclude_registry=\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Appx

exclude_registry=\REGISTRY\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppReadiness

Was there ever a solution found for this? We've got the same issue in our environment. Seems to always affect the same tiles, with Chrome being the most common one.
