    Windows Start Menu and some other Settings submenus not working


    Hi,


    Since some days on my 2-3 month old Windows 10 Pro, the Start menü stopped working. If I click on it a loading circle appeare at the cursor for 1-2 sec, but nothing happen. I tried several method on the net, sfc scan, DISM commands, etc. none was a solution.

    There was a solution what worked for one user https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hE0Pse86Xv0 but on my PC there is multiple user, and when I did the previously mentioned "fix", all other users start menu, and all short cuts stoped working even display setting menu. Some error window came up ms-settingsWindows Start Menu and some other Settings submenus not working :personalization-background.


    I tought I did something bad, so I reinstalled freshly the OS, but after all windows update installed, the f..ing annoying bug came up again.


    Please do something!!!!

    :)

    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:
