Start Menu Not Working

The Windows 10 start menu has stopped working. If I click on the Start button, nothing happens. I did a repair install and that corrected the problem for a few days. The problem has returned. No start menu. All updates have been installed.

How To Get Start Menu Working Again

Mar 27, 2015

I recently installed Windows 10. I had this problem where explore.exe kept restarting. My friend had this problem too. He told me to create a new user. So I did. He also said to go to "c:usersold user" and copy everything from there to save my stuff. It was about 50 gbs so I did folder by folder.

When I goto Appdata, I copied everything from the old user onto the new one. But I accidentally deleted almost everything in Local. Now, the start menu isn't working and Windows Update isn't either. When I click on the start menu, nothing happens. I do have a system restore from before I deleted it. Should I restore it?

As I am typing this, I am running sfc /scannow

Got an error " Windows Resource Protection could not preforom the requested operation."

Start Menu Isn't Working

Dec 4, 2015

I'm looking at precisely this error message, in a blue box, on a friend's Samsung XE500T1C after an upgrade, via GWX, to Windows 10.  The only option is to "Sign out now".  Needless to say repeated log outs and log ins have not resolved the issue.  Also the Windows Search/Cortana box doesn't work. I would suggest a Reset Install but, without the Start menu to get to Settings, I can find no other way to get to where one needs to be to do a Reset Install.

Start Menu Search Not Working

Aug 10, 2015

When I start my computer, my Start Menu Search sometimes gets stuck in a start up or searching loop. The start menu itself works if I am just using my mouse to click icons. The issue is hitting the Windows button on my keyboard and typing.What is strange is that when this happens, if I log out then log in again, it starts up fine. While this is a workaround, I would like to solve the problem that is causing the problem.

I've tried re-indexing my entire computer based on a similar post I found here, but that did not work. Also - searching in a general Explorer window works fine showing the Windows Indexing does not appear to be the problem.

Start Menu Not Working Until Reboot

Oct 17, 2015

I occasionally (but frequently enough that it is noticeable) get an unresponsive start menu. When this happens Win+P for display switching also does not work. The start menu starts working after a reboot and only after a reboot. Obviously this gets annoying because of all the windows I have to reopen.What I've tried when the start menu stops working:

1. sfc /scannow - this doesn't show any errors
2. Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)AppXManifest.xml"} - the process finishes but the start menu doesn't start working anyway

I really hate restarting the PC when this happens.

Start Menu Not Working After Update

May 2, 2015

For those of you who can't get the Windows Start menu in build 10074 to appear or work when you UPDATE from build 10061 it WILL work if you revert back first to build 10049 and then update.

Activate windows and re-boot -- now it will work. Ensure Windows is activated after the re-boot but activate BEFORE reboot.

(Another good reason for keeping loads of backup images).

You can also now hide system icons again as before too. Don't forget to clean up disk space by using Disk cleanup in properties in file manager -- you can get rid of Windows.old if you don't want to revert back again --in any case I think it's better to RESTORE a previous version from a backup image if you must restore windows.

Start Menu Stopped Working?

Jan 10, 2016

My start menu stopped working several weeks ago and I have been trying all the suggestions found of the various forums with the exception of reloading Windows 10. It looks like Microsoft should be responsible for publishing a solution to this problem realizing how many people are having the same trouble.

BSOD :: Start Menu Not Working

Aug 25, 2015

I upgraded to Windows 10 from 8.1 about two weeks ago. It worked fine for a few days then the problems began. When I click on the start menu button, I get a critical error message saying "the start menu isn't working; we'll try to fix it the next time you sign in."

I clicked the shut down button attached to the error message and shut the system down. I restarted and went to my desktop again. I tried the start menu button and received the same error message. I was able to log on to my son's desktop on the same computer. The start menu works on his desktop. I ran the SFC Scan and received the message that there weren't any integrity violations.

I then tried to revert back to Windows 8.1 from the settings menu. I received the following error message: WDF_Violation. It restarted my computer, but could not take Windows 10 off and put Windows 8.1 back on. Every day something new happens. Now I cannot shut the computer off. I use the power button and select shut down. It attempts to shut down but it brings me back to the login window. I can't get rid of Windows 10, can't get Windows 8.1 back. I'm stuck with a crippled Windows 10.

Start Menu And Taskbar Not Working

Jul 31, 2015

My laptop is LENOVO G510. It came with windows 8 single language. I upgraded to windows 8.1 single language a year ago. I updated it to windows 10 home by triggering the update. The upgrade went successfully. But the problem now is the start button, applications in the taskbar(only right click) and icons on the taskbar on the right side(time, battery, wifi etc) are not working. They work if I click them after a gap of ten minutes. But if I click them for a second time immediately, they won't work.

I got a message box showing "startmenu and cortana are not working, it will be fixed the next time you sign in". When I sign out and sign in, there is no change.

Start Menu Functions Not Working

Aug 27, 2015

I upgraded to Windows 10 from 7 and I notice that some of the "Start Menu" functions do not work.

For example:

- When I use "Pin to Start" nothing gets pinned.
- When I try to use "Don't show in this list" under the "Most used" section the app still remains showing.
- When I go under "Settings > Personalization > Start" screen and turn OFF "Show most used apps" this section is still visible under the "Start Menu".

How I can fix these issues and get the "Start Menu" working properly again?

Start Menu And Cortana Not Working?

Aug 4, 2015

I believe that is what is causing the 'critical error'. I uninstalled the software and upon reboot my start button and cortana were working perfectly again. Now I'm sure you all know how to uninstall software on your PCs but it may not work in normal mode with the critical error as it didn't with me. Therefore I uninstalled in safe mode. Incase you arent familiar with how to access safe mode on windows 10, heres how: You press ctrl+alt+delete, and in the bottom right hand corner you click the power button. Before you click 'restart', hold down the shift key until the next screen is displayed (blue). Then click troubleshoot, advanced options, start-up settings, restart. Once it restarts, press the F4 key, and when it restarts you will be in safe mode. Now just do the normal thing to uninstall avast and then reboot following the installation and it should be fixed!

Cortana And Start Menu Aren't Working

Sep 6, 2015

I upgraded to Win 10 a week ago and after a long updating session was well pleased with the OS - everything seemed to work normally and much faster than before.

However, a day after the last updates were installed (KB3081449 and KB3081448) my normal screen appeared with a boxed message ;
'Cortana and Start Menu aren't working. We'll try to fix it the next time you sign in. Sign out now'.

Signing back in does not fix the problem. I cannot access the Start Menu or Search box. I still have my normal (Win 7 style) screen that luckily still has my shortcuts and I still have WiFi access. I have to shut down using the power button.

I don't know how to access the installed updates (There appears to be no access via Control Panel) and restore options only allow a 'revert to Win 7' - is there a Restore option available that takes you back a few days?
