Windows 10: 2 Questions regarding the amazing Start Button

So, you are happy then?

 

Has anyone else found a fix for my problem yet? I'm thinking of just going to the directory and deleting all Microsoft Office 2013 files found there and doing a reboot. Has anyone tried this yet and have it work?

 

Picking this up from your other thread, where you said people had stopped responding to this one:

Well you've definitely got me confused as your 2 posts above appear (to me) to contradict each other. Maybe you need to clarify the current situation and what the issue is (again) so people know what you are asking for help with and as yet have 'no real answer' for.

It would also help to say what results you've had following any of the suggestions you've been given. Again, you may have done this already, but if you want more input, you could help your cause by starting afresh with some clarification.

As for your second question about Start appearing when waking from S&H. Afraid I can't help with that one as I don't use S&H.

But it never helps to ask 2 separate questions in one post, as different people will respond to each question and it can very quickly get confusing as to which replies relate to which question. Separate them out, give them meaningful headings so people can quickly see what the question is, and see if you get a more satisfactory response.

Good luck *Smile

 

Actually, the post really do not contradict each other at all. My first posting you quote, is sarcasm. A respondent called YOU gave me some instruction as what to do. It seemed to work to a point until I rebooted the machine. The one piece of Microsoft 2013 that had been put in the Start Button along with Word as a sub-directory, simply disappeared upon rebooting the machine.

I was in amazement that the thread just came to a dead stop. But your previous explanations coincide with my own thinking. Too many threads and mine was just left in the dust.

Thanks for your reply.

 

have you tried doing a repair of Office, see if it puts it back to normal

right click start menu and select programs and features (top entry)
from the list highlight office and click the 'Change' button
next popup should give the option to repair it

 

You need to be careful when using sarcasm, as people who have tried to help you might not appreciate it and that could make them decide to offer their help elsewhere.

Sarcastic or not - it still confused the heck out of me *What. And I took that 'YOU' to be a reference to anyone reading the thread, not a specific respondent. So it did seem (to me) that you were 'getting at' the people who were trying to help.

Anyway, all is not lost: why don't you mark this thread as 'Solved' with a comment saying it got confused and so you closed it. Then, if you still have the issues, put each in a different thread with a clear and relevant title (e.g. Start button shows when coming out of sleep / Problem pinning Word to taskbar) that will draw readers who have an expertise in that area, and see what happens?

 

Paulsalter has solved this problem. Thanks again for the various replies!!!
