------------------------------

This is my home machine and any Windows updates have been installed automatically by Windows. The error shows a new entry in the reliability monitor every time I click the start menu. Win+X and Right-Clicking the start menu both work and show in the correct area.


I have tried the following fixes:

• SFC.exe /scannow
• Using the following command in windows powershell

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

• Using the following command in windows poweshell

Get-appxpackage -all *shellexperience* -packagetype bundle |%{add-appxpackage -register -disabledevelopmentmode ($._installlocation + "\appxmetadata\appxbundlemanifest.xml")}

• Using the following command in windows powershell

Get-appxpackage -all *shellexperiencehost* -packagetype bundle |%{add-appxpackage -register -disabledevelopmentmode ($._installlocation + "\appxmetadata\appxbundlemanifest.xml")}

• Verifying permissions in DCOM and key app folders
• Checking registry entries and adding a registry entry to enalbe XAML start menu
  
• Restarting multiple times
• Using a newly created non-administrator local account
