  1. Windows 10 Tashbar -Start Icon not working with a left click


    As of 2 days ago when I left click on the Start Icon at the left side of the Taskbar on the bottom of the desktop nothing happens. If I right click, I get a pop up but not like the left click. How do I restore the function?

    :)

  2. Start Menu left margin icons - expanded?

    Is there a way to customize the Windows 10 start menu to always expand the left margin icons? There are three lines at the top left corner that can expand the left margin outward, but it collapses afterwards. I'd prefer to get rid of the alphabetized scroll list altogether and just have the expanded margin with text instead of the icons. Thanks.

  3. Start menu stopped working in Windows 10

    I installed Windows 10 last weekend. Everything was fine until this morning when the icon for the start menu stop working. I should say a left click on the icon no longer works so I don't see all my apps etc..... I can still left right click and get windows
    utilities and such.

    I've read through some of the suggested solutions and tried some but nothing has worked. Does anyone have a definitive solution yet ? Any help would be appreciated

    please i have the same problem right now....and i have try to use the steps as listed...but is requesting for administrator permission or privilege

    Windows 10 Tashbar -Start Icon not working with a left click

    update to windows 10 caused the "app" icon in the left portion of the start menu to disappear

    I can find all my apps and the RIGHT side of the start menu is arranged to my perfection.

    Its the LEFT side of the start menu that I do not like. I want the list of ALL the apps to be hidden and the icon for listing all the apps to be back on the left side of the start menu. If I click on a hamburger in the upper left corner of the start menu,
    the apps list disappears and shows me the start menu view I want for the default.

    I have spent a couple of hours attempting to get back to the Original Windows 10 upgrade start menu, no apps list and a link (icon) to get the list.

    I've been throught the links about missing icons but believe they all refer to the the right side of the the start menu and do not apply. And you second and third links refer to window 10 upgrade problems. My upgrade is working perfectly.
