Windows 10: Start menu appearing with Black Background Screen in Windows 10 May Update 2020

Hello everyone,


I recently fresh installed Windows 10 May Update 2020 in my laptop Lenovo V145-15AST81 MT with Processor and Graphic AMD A6-9225 RADEON R4,


My problem is when I press WIN+S i.e. WinKey+S, then sometimes start menu appearing with black background screen.


If this problem is related from Display driver, then I updated most recent version in march 2020 from Lenovo driver manufacturer website.

Start menu background was black after updated to build 1903.

Previously I set my taskbar to blue and the start menu background also reflected that. After upgraded to 1903, the start menu background was black.

• I already set Default Windows Mode to Dark
• I checked the box 'Show Accent color - Start, taskbar, and action center. I set the color to blue but the Start menu's background was not changed.
• I have the latest NVIDIA driver.
• Checked for Windows update and there was no update.

Interestingly, this only happened if I set the start menu to full screen. If it's not in full screen mode, the background was blue.

My home screen appears black with no start menu

Hi Muhamad,

You might be experiencing this issue because of corrupted system files or device drivers. To help us identify the cause of this problem, we would like to know the following information:

• Are you able to reach the sign-in screen when starting your computer?
• Have you made any changes to your computer before experiencing this issue?
• What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

In the meantime, we suggest that you perform the troubleshooting steps in the following link:

Troubleshoot black screen problems.

If you can reach the sign-in screen, we recommend that you start your PC in safe mode from the sign-in screen.
Safe mode starts Windows in a basic state, using a limited set of files and drivers. It can help you troubleshoot problems on your PC. Here are the steps:

• When you get to the sign-in screen, hold the Shift key down while you select the Power
  icon > Restart.
• After your PC restarts to the Choose an option screen, select
  Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart.
• After your PC restarts, you'll see a list of options. Select 5 or
  F5 for Safe Mode with Networking.

Keep us updated on the status of the issue, and we will be glad to assist you further.
