    Unable to customize Start menu


    Doing what you have suggested, Slartybart, only allows me to change the background colour of the entire screen. I need that "Start Menu" tab in order to just change the colour of the Start Menu.

    As per title.
    I'm thinking this might be video driver related as it happens mostly when I'm windowing a game and opening other apps etc.

    This has just happened to me, and looking at your screenshots I've noticed that you have Geforce Experience opened.
    I opened Geforce experience as well, and changed the Metal Gear Solid V resolution using Dynamic Super Resolution (DSR), and after closing the game the Start Menu icons were gone. So, GeForce Experience may be the culprit:

    Have you used Geforce Experience and DSR to change the resolution of any game?

    I've attached a screenshot of my start menu with missing icons.
