All Programs List won't remove on Windows 10

After the Windows 10 Anniversary update the "Remove All Programs List from the Start Menu" policy object no longer seems to apply on a clients PC. The "All Programs" folder isn't on the PC (or my personal PC for that matter, which doesn't have the policy enacted) but the list just appears directly next to the Start menu folders. The user on the PC with the policy isn't supposed to have access to more than about 7-8 programs which are set as Start Tiles.  The policy is restricting everything else it is supposed to except this. I am wondering if the definition of the "All Programs List" has changed and how I can restrict access again. This is a local GPO for a Workgroup machine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
