Windows 10: Taskbar blank & Start button unresponsive

Now & then when I start my computer, nothing appears in the task bar, the Microsoft Start button at the bottom left fails to respond to either a left or right click, the Cortana window "Ask me anything" & the Task View are also unresponsive'
I then restart the computer either by pressing the power button for some time or by the Ctrl/Alt/Delete process. On re-starting everything is fine.
What I don't know is how to prevent this problem from occurring again.

Windows 10 Start button NOT WORKING!!!!

This of absolutley no use to me whatsoever. I have no access to the task bar or the start button, and my PC is renderd virtually useless as a result of the supposed "upgrade". Can you please post a repair for this in plain English and one that actually has
a chance of working.?

At the moment I have an unresponsive start button , a box that says "I'm cortana ask me anything" which I find juvenile to be honest, and a blank taskbar.

 

Taskbar is unclickable

My taskbar is unclickable ....... each icon I pressed is unresponsive including "WIFI, Battery, start button"etc .please help me it's not solving ........

 

Hi there,

This recently happened to me with my Surface Pro 4. All you gotta do is Ctrl+Shift+Esc (opens TaskMgr) and do File > Run. Type in 'powershell' and check the box that says Run task with administrative privileges. Once you get into PS, run this:

Code: Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}[/quote] Should fix it right then and there, but you may need to restart.

Hope it helps *Smile

 

Dear Michael,
Many thanks for your prompt reply.
As I said, the problem gets instantly solved if I do nothing but merely re-start the computer. But after a few days it recurs.
What I want is to know why this happens and how can it be permanently solved.
Best regards,

 

It's a bug I believe. It happened to me several weeks ago as well. Eventually, Microsoft will release an update to address it.

Good luck & regards.

 

Thanks Michael
I will wait patiently for MS to de-bug it
Best regards,
