So I booted up pc, opened edge, was logged out of all sites. Noticed account says "setting up sync". So I don't have access to passwords and browser extensions not working. If I close the browser it logs me out of sites again. Also if click the start menu for windows 11 I can't access windows updates. I click on it and does nothing also if I try to access through search bar it just goes into an infinite loading. I hard reset pc, reset router/modem and still having issues.

Hello Richard,

We need to do further investigation on your concern so that we can isolate the issue regarding Microsoft Edge and Start menu:

• Have you tried to searching in Cortana search to check if Edge can be located?
• Besides powershell, what other troubleshooting steps have you performed?

In the meantime, you can download and run the
Windows apps troubleshooter to isolate the issue on Edge.

We also suggest that you download and run the
Start Menu troubleshooter to fix common Start menu issues.

We will wait for your response.
