    Cant open Windows menu, search, settings and windows apps.


    Simply put my PC is running ok. However I cannot open the windows menu, settings or use search. Which means I cant get to windows update or the control panel. I have tried to.use the short cut on the keyboard the cmd commands or the shortcuts on windows website when looking for answers. To correct this problem I have done the powershell scans and they have returned no errors. I would like to avoid a fresh install of windows as I can use and access all non windows related content.

    This all occurred after I installed a windows update recently. I'm running windows 10 x64. 16gb ram. Hdd 1tb.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    Feature suggestions - move to proper menus, add Options window

    Suggestions:
    1) Remove main menus from top left menu (system menu) and move them to a standard Windows menu, at the top.
    Leave the 6 system menu items (Restore --- Close) in system menu, move all the rest to that standard main menu. The main menu can be auto-hidable - pressing Alt key to invoke it or hide it, similar to the way IE11 menus and many Windows 10 built-in apps' menus work.

    2) And/or, add an Options menu or button, which would invoke a separate screen with GPU-Z Options, similar to how most Windows apps work.
    Most Windows apps have a separate Options screen, which GPU-Z lacks - one should be added.

    Thanks in advance for listening!

    Try this method:
    • First of all from Start Menu, open Settings (Type settings in the search bar and it will appear).
    • locate and select “Update and Security“.
    • in this window, Locate “Advanced Options”. Click on it.
    • In Advanced Options; Click on “Choose How Updates are Delivered“.
    • Turn off Updates from more than one place.
    Your system will not work as a seeder for other Windows 10 users. It will give sudden boast to your Slow internet speed.
