Windows 10: Windows 10 1909 MUI broken search bar and start menu

Hi folks,


I installed Windows 10 1909 from scratch in english.

After that I installed via dism.exe german language pack

call dism.exe /norestart /online /add-package /packagepath:"c:\temp\Microsoft-Windows-Client-Language-Pack_x64_de-de.cab"


and set the default display language over xml to german

call C:\Windows\System32\control.exe intl.cpl,,/f:"c:\temp\configuartion.xml".


Now I can no longer enter letters in the search field. The start menu also no longer responds to the input of characters.


Bug?


Any help?


Kind regards Marco

:)

 

Windows 10 1909 start menu side-bar behavior

I'm currently using Windows 10 1903 and it is the first Windows 10 version I'm using as my primary OS.

I've tried 1909 (18363.418) already and noticed that when I hover the cursor over the side-bar on the left of the Windows Start Menu, the side-bar expands to its full size instead of just showing the tooltip for the hovered item like in 1903.





In 1903 there is the standard three-stripes icon on the top for ones who not satisfied with tooltips and want to expand the Start Menu side-bar.

In 1909's Start Menu this icon also exists and expands the side-bar to its full size, as expected.

The problem is hovering the mouse over the 1909's Start Menu side-bar also expands the side-bar to its full size instead of just showing the tooltip for the hovered side-bar item.

I've searched several times through the whole Settings app but haven't found how to get rid of this annoying behavior.

May be I can change something in the registry?
