    Windows button not working.


    Here we go again. This topic has been popping up since at least 2016. Today on my HP workstation the Windows button stopped working and no, it's not the keyboard. Microsoft gives piecemeal advice and cryptic solutions. How about a real downloadable patch? After all us lesser folks out there need the operation system to function correctly and we don't all have access to the IT guy. MS is spending billions on AI but can't get the bugs out of their operating system. Come on Microsoft Brains, design a patch for this awful bug.

    Start Button displaying but not working


    The start button was working until there was a forced reboot (power failure). Then left click (normal click) over the start button does absolutely nothing. Right click brings up a menu but "programs" and also "settings" are missing and not included on this list. Search or Task View buttons do not work either with "normal" click. Does anyone have any suggestion or fixes?
    Thank you in advance *Huh
