Xbox Home Profile Shortcut

my games tend to go to my start menu and shortcut added to my home screen if i chose the option for shortcut to be added.

so on the xbox itself -

1. Sign into your account and immediately hit the Xbox Home button twice -- or navigate to the left to open the shortcuts/online pane.
   
2. In that menu, select your personal icon at the top.
3. Press A to select it, then hit A to open the shortcuts.
4. On the right side of the screen, you will see three options: Appear Offline, Customize Profile, and Privacy Settings.

you can also appear offline using the xbox app on windows 10 but its not possible to do so yet via the mobile app.

I have several shortcuts that have been saved to My Tags where linked links are no longer available. The uncheck option is no longer available but the shortcut stays attached to my profile. And every time down on my console, this crap reappears and I get
the Dash polluted with those useless shortcuts. MS could release an update that could remove these shortcuts from otherwise unattended markups that are not linked to the link's own shortcut. I await solution !!!!

there needs to be a shortcut button to the party as well. Without having to verbally snap it or go to home and select party.
