  1. Start menu keeps popping up


    Past 4 days my start menu keeps popping up on my screen and closes by itself every second. I have tried every solution I have found online, I am using a regular pc with a mouse and keyboard, no touch pad. I have unplugged my keyboard just to watch it keep happening, reset my pc and installed Windows 10 again. I tried the start menu troubleshoot and it tells me something about the windows experience host not installed properly, so I went through every thing to install that, nothing changes, I can't even type anything on my pc because every time I do it begins to type it in the search bar on the start menu and then closes it one second later.

    :)
