    Windows 10 power user menu Win+X and context menu issues

    Hitting the Win+X brings up the menu as it should; although from the list Desktop, Shutdown, Run and Search are the only menu options that open. The other options click like they are going to open but they don't.

    I've done some checking and found the directory C:\User\<user>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX which houses the shortcut's for the Power User Menu. When I click those links all of them load correctly.

    I'm not quite sure what's causing the menu choices from the Win+X, or if for example I pinned a directory onto the file explorer when I try to click the pin item by right click and then left click the item will not open.

    Any ideas or help will be greatly appreciated. I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10. Thanks.
