    crashed. Now start menu opens in upper left corner and not clickable


    win10 randomly crashed while idle. Some kernel security bsod.

    after reboot, the start menu does not open in the lower left corner. It opens in upper left corner, and none of the menu is clickable. I have to use keyboard arrow keys to navigate.

    Also, when I start typing words to search for apps, the search menu opens full screen.

    My start menu is corrupted. How do I restore it? Event viewer suggested my .dat file is corrupted.

    Even creating brand new user, the start menu still opens in the upper left corner (while the start button is in the lower left corner), and the menu is not clickable for the new user.

    Windows doesn`t start. Authomatic repair doesn`t work.

    Thanks again!!

    I`m sorry I had not noticed that the text on the picture was in spanish. It says that windows has replaced some damaged clusters in "name" file and "directory". Then, at the end "an unspecified error occurred (75736e6a726e6c2e 4f6)".

    I`ll do it and I`ll be updating this thread when I have the report.

    I ran SeaTools. These are the results:

    Does it mean my HDD is useless?

    Start Menu

    Hi,

    To pin a website to Start, see the steps below:

    • Click on the ellipsis button (three vertical dots) at the upper-right corner of the page >
      Pin this page to Start.
    • After doing that, the page should show up on the Start menu as one of the tiles.

    Let us know what happens after following the steps.
