  1. Windows 10 Start Menu not working


    I have had this problem for several months. My Windows Start menu doesn't work. I can't left or right click on it. I have tried the powershell command with no luck. I can't add any new users either. If I double click on a jpg file I get "class not registered". I frequently receive the message "HPUTSCH not working". I can't do anything that requires a Windows command. I am an IT Trainer so I desperately need it! I have called Microsoft Support today and was on the phone to 45 mins to a lady who I could barely understand and who did not seem very knowledgeable. She asked me to restart my PC. I said I couldn't because I was talking to her via Skype. She said would call me back on my mobile but hasn't! I can't reinstall as the PC came with W10 preinstalled so I have no CDs.

    :)

    Start menu is not working on Windows 10

    Hi,

    Iunderstand the frustration if things are not working fine as expected.

    Please help us with below details,


            • When you say "If I sign in under my user name I am in some earlier version", which version you are referring to?

            • Did you made any recent changes to your computer prior to the issue?

            • When you say “I cannot access the start menu and am limited to IP as a browser” Is it refers to Microsoft Edge?

    As an initial steps, I suggest you to check for the Windows version. To do so, follow the below steps:

    1) Login to your computer through user name on which it show earlier version of Windows.

    2) Press Windows key + r.

    3) Type winver, hit enter.

    For the issue related to start menu, I suggest you to refer to the below Microsoft help article and check,
