StartMenuExperienceHost issue

Hi, I'm trying to detach the screen of my surface book 2 but, when I try it, windows show me an alert, and doesn't let me detach the screen.

The alert message tells me that I have to close some applications. I have close almost all, but there is one that I'm not able to find, "startmenuexperiencehost". If I can't close it, I can't detach the screen.

I don't find how to close this.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks in adavance.
