Has your Windows 10 start menu stopped working? Sadly, the Windows 10 Start menu tends not to open while clicking the Start button or pressing the Windows key on the keyboard. Further, the trouble frequently causes the Search box to freeze up as well.
But, you don’t have to worry. Just follow these steps to fix up your start menu issues:
1. Launch Task Manager by pressing the [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [Del] buttons on the keyboard together, or right-click the Taskbar and select Task Manager.
2. Run a new Windows task by clicking the “More Details” to expand it in the Task Manager, then press “Run” new job selecting from the “File” menu.
3. While running the new task dialog box opens, type “Powershell” within it, mark the box for Create this task with administrative privileges and then click the “OK” button.
4. Then write “sfc /scannow” within the window and press the Enter key to execute the process. The scan will take a few times and finish with one of three outcomes. “Windows didn’t discover any integrity violations” or “Windows Resource Protection discovered corrupt files and repaired them” signify there are currently no corrupt files in the computer, but “Windows Resource Protection discovered corrupt files but was incapable of fixing some or all of them” point to some errors.
4. If there is any problem, you have to type, or you have to copy and paste the terms “DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth” within the window. Then you have to click the Enter key. Doing this will download files from Windows Update to put back the corrupt files, and, once more, this possibly will take a few times more.
After finishing the procedure, your PC will be repaired automatically.
