  3. remove TWINUI from default apps

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Community.

    We understand your concern and we will provide the assistance required to help you resolve the issue.



    Twinui this is of special importance for those doing background processing, live & secondary tiles. In the documentation it is either called just TWinUI or it is called Microsoft-Windows-TWinUI.

    To tackle this issue, I would suggest that you perform System Restore which will return your computer back to it original state. System Restore helps you restore your computer's system files to an earlier point in time. It's a way to undo system changes
    to your computer without affecting your personal files, such as e‑mail, documents, or photos. To perform restore refer to the article provided below

    Recovery options in Windows 10 -
    Windows Help


    As for the issue that you are facing with your Start Menu, I would suggest that you run the scans below and check if you find any system file errors.

    Method 1: SFC

    System File Checker [SFC] scan on the computer which will replace the missing or corrupt files & check if the issue persists.

    a. Right click on the Start Menu, locate and select Command Prompt (Admin).

    Note: If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.

    b. Type the following command, and then press
    ENTER
    :

    sfc /scannow

    Method 2: DISM

    1) Press Windows + x on your keyboard.

    2) Select Command prompt (Admin) to open Administrator Command Prompt.

    3) In the Administrator: Command Prompt window, type the following commands. Press the Enter key after each command:

    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth



    Hope this helps
