    Follow the steps to Run DISM Commands:

    1) Press Windows + x on your keyboard.

    Start Menu , Search and Notifications not work

    Same here- but I use Stardock Start10 menu which works fine and soooo much better (ie the same as Win7). Why Microsoft changed it I don't know. But I still can't get Search and Action Centre like you :-(
