  1. The start menu and Settings app are not working in windows 11


    I've tried numerous troubleshooting guides to try and fix this issue and nothing has worked. I've tried reinstalling via windows 11 iso. Nothing has worked. Are there any fixes for this that are recent that I haven't tried and barring that is there a way to revert to windows 10 without using the settings menu? Thanks a ton.

    :)
