  1. Start Menu or Start Screen won’t close after clicking tile


    Start Menu or Start Screen won’t close after clicking a tile of Windows 7 Games. I installed the Windows 7 Games on a Windows 10 machine. It works on the main (admin) account. It, however, has this glitch on a non-admin account, when opening one of the games on the Start Screen (or Menu: I tried both), that Start stays there after opening the program:

    With right clicking and opening as admin (on the second non-admin account), the program, or one of them don’t open at all.

    One other thing is, I installed the software on the admin account. Windows 10 is set to Dutch. The program folder is in English on the admin account, however. The folder is called “Games”.

    On the other account, the folder is in Dutch: the folder is called “Onstpanning”.

    I did not install on the second account, because one doesn’t have to, after having it installed on the main account, right?

  2. Sticky Notes Won't Open From Start Menu

    I have performed the suggested commands. After doing that, I pinned Sticky Notes to my Start menu and clicked the tile. The notes appeared on my screen. I then closed Sticky Notes (Alt-F4) and clicked the tile in the Start menu again. As it had before the
    scan, the icon flashes on the taskbar, but goes away shortly afterward and the notes do not appear on my screen. After waiting, I clicked the icon on the left side of the Start menu and Sticky Notes opened. I then clicked the icon again, but Sticky Notes didn't
    open. The icon simply flashed on the taskbar. Strange

    Here are the steps that I have found work for opening Sticky Notes repeatedly (although, they are rather tedious).

    1. Pin it to the Start menu.

    2. Right-click the tile.

    3. Under More, click Rate and review.

    4. Close the review dialog.

    5. Click the Launch button from the Store application.

    I clicked the Launch button and Sticky Notes launched with no problems. I then closed it and clicked Launch again. No problems

    I then closed it and clicked Launch again. No problems

    But:

    1. Trying to open it from the Start menu fails most of the time.

    2. [rather peculiar]: Microsoft Sticky Notes is nowhere to be found on the Store when I open the Store application via the live tile and search for Microsoft Sticky Notes. Also, I thought that perhaps uninstalling it and reinstalling Sticky Notes would help,
    but I cannot uninstall it.

  3. "unpin from start" and "use start full screen" not working!

    I'm using windows 10 home and i can't pin tiles on start menu.The tiles appears for 1sec and then the start menu closes and next time when i check, start menu doesn't show the tile.

    Also when i switch the "use start full screen" option, it doesn't changes to full screen and it automatically disables the option.Every time i try to enabled it, it disables automatically.

  4. Start Menu or Start Screen won’t close after clicking tile

    I just tried on my own Windows 10 machine, but I have the exact same problem. My main account is in English.

    The programs worked perfectly fine on Windows 8 with a second account. I will try other programs to see if the same problem occurs.
