Why is start menu not working on single core CPU and sometimes work on dual core?

Why is start menu not working on single core CPU and sometimes work on dual core?

On the single core Cortana keeps crashing ever time when trying to launch it. On Dual core Cortana seems to work but than after few hours it crashes and start menu does not work. Restart sometimes works but many time does not work.

Besides install classic start menu, what option is there to fix start menu or remove Cortana that is crashing?

 

Start Menu Crash

Hello John,

Thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

To diagnose the issue, I would suggest you to try the following methods and check if the issue persists.

Method 1:

Try to run a System File Checker (SFC) scan to check for any file corruption.
SFC scan will scan for corrupt system files on the computer and repair them.

• Press Windows key + X, click Command Prompt (Admin).
• In the Command Prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
  
  sfc /scannow

If the issue still exists, try the next method.

Method 2:

You may check the same issue with the new user account.

Try these steps to create a new user account and check if it fixes the issue. Refer to the steps below to create a new User Account:

• Go to Settings.
• Choose Accounts and then select Other User Accounts towards the left.
• Select Add an Account.
• Enter a user name and hit Next.
• Click on Finish.
• Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
• Check if issue persists.

Hope this information is helpful. Do let us know if you need any further assistance, we'll be glad to assist you.

 

Right click on Start should still work and enter into Command Prompt:

taskkill /IM explorer.exe /F & explorer.exe

Or you can use an alternative task manager like Process Hacker, right click explorer and just Restart it.

 

i know how to restart explorer exe, how to restart WIn 10 start menu ? it wont open after driver crash.

 

Start is also explorer process, so it might work, you can also try to restart ShellExperienceHost.exe.

 

umm when my start menu crashes, i can still see my task bar and my explorer works fine, i dont think they are the same, let me try that if that happens again.
