The start menu in Windows 10 is essentially a bunch of shortcuts. Does anyone know if those shortcuts are all stored in an accessible folder, and if so, where that folder is?

I just right clicked on a shortcut in the Start Menu and chose Open File Location. The location of all the shortcuts is C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs. This is the folder I'm directed to from All apps as well as the Most used list.

The tiles are for Windows Store Apps which are stored in C:\Program Files\WindowsApps.
