Windows 10: Windows 10 Start Icon Right-Click stops working

After installing the Feature Update to Windows 10 version 20H2 on Sunday December 13th, mouse right-click on the Start-menu Icon for the Context-menu no longer works. It's mute. The mouse left-click works as before. And now also, hovering on the Start-menu Icon renders it dim. I have never seen the Start-menu Icon go dim by just hovering on it, and not to mention, not responding to right-clicks. Please help to get my Start-menu\Context-menu by mouse right clicking on it back. Thanks!
