    Windows Start not working


    Hi there, my windows start menu isn't working when I type in with the inbuilt keyboard on my laptop. This happened right after i changed something in the registry, but it wasn't even related to the start menu. Here is the registry text that I used: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Fonts]"Segoe UI TrueType"="""Segoe UI Bold TrueType"="""Segoe UI Bold Italic TrueType"="""Segoe UI Italic TrueType"="""Segoe UI Light TrueType"="""Segoe UI Semibold TrueType"="""Segoe UI Symbol TrueType"=""HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mi

    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

    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.
