    "Show most used apps" setting is greyed out


    It has been my practice to have the setting "Show most used apps" always turned on. Today my most used apps disappeared from my start menu, so I checked the setting at Settings>Personalization> Start and found that "Show most used apps" was both turned off, and also greyed out, so that I was prevented from turning the setting to on. Please help me to turn this feature back on.

    :)

    'Show most used apps' toggle in Settings is greyed out

    I'm not sure what happened. I've always left this setting on. Just recently I noticed my 'most used' programs in the Start Menu was no longer showing. I went into the settings and saw that the toggle was greyed out.

    Any idea how to get the toggle back? Beforehand, I think I was going through the settings in Cortana trying to turn everything off.

  3. 'Show app list in Start menu' is disabled (greyed out)

    I tried to switch on 'Show all apps in Start menu' but the option in Settings > Personalisation > Start is disabled (the toggle and associated text is greyed out). 'Show most used apps' is also greyed out (not that I want this one...).

    I can't see a way of getting this list back - what do I have to do to get it enabled?
