    Hey all. Been having a weird issue. Here in the past few days I haven't been able to click on the start button and the start menu appear. I click it and it does nothing..... I can right click it and get the menu so I can reboot the computer and it comes back. Just annoying. Anyone else having this issue and maybe know what is causing it? Thanks :)

    BTW I'm running 1511 build 10586.36

    I had the the same thing happen a few months back, and found out it was caused by me having a wired and wireless mouse connected at the same time.
    Strangely it didn't happen every time though.

    Unlikely many others will be running two but thought it may be worth checking for conflicts before spending time on OS re-install.

    I get that but as a lag every now and then with the current build + cumulative update. It will probably be fixed after the new year. If you can't get the menu at all, better reset.

    Do you get a popup that says you are logged in under a temporary profile?

    Nope haven't seen anything like that(Plus all my mice/kb, etc are wired). It's prolly something messed up from the original upgrade from 7. I haven't done a clean install yet. Now that I know that my Windows will be automatically activated I'll just do the reinstall. Not worth beating my brain trying to figure it out.... Thank you all and Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays!

    WAIT! Don't format stuff yet! I just spent 2 weeks tracking down what was doing this for me. Long story short, I ended up having to go into Settings->Privacy->Background Apps and turn them ALL off. That would keep the BackgroundBroker service from trying to update apps in the background, which was causing wait chains in half of my svchost.exe processes, thus keeping the start menu and other windows (like Settings) from working.

    I also ended up having to disable an obscure system device called AMDA00 to get my boot, restart and shutdown times to where they should be. I used to have to wait an extra 20 seconds in all of those instances for apps and services to crash and be killed. Please refer to this short post I made about this exact issue a few days ago, and feel free to ask for much more detailed info as to how I diagnosed and tracked down these issues.

    This only happened once on the desktop but happens constantly on my HP TouchSmart after awakening it up from sleep.

    Similar reason here, batteries went on the mouse so hooked up an old wired one and for months didn't replace the batteries.
    I also need wired mouse for the bios, wireless doesn't work.

    Managed to replicate the issue earlier.

    by win10 10240 this usually fixed it.. Its seems to be a connection with modern apps

    right-click on start reboot, this should work if I'm not mistaken.


    there is another code, but use this if 1st doesn't help..
    I got that in win10 TH2 too once, but when I tried this code it kind of glitched modern apps names, so you might want to do a system restore point before using it.


    Other thing could be to rebuild WMI

    copy this in txt. file and rename it to WMI.bat, run as admin

    @echo off
    sc config winmgmt start= disabled
    net stop winmgmt /y
    %systemdrive%
    cd %windir%\system32\wbem
    for /f %%s in ('dir /b *.dll') do regsvr32 /s %%s
    wmiprvse /regserver
    winmgmt /regserver
    sc config winmgmt start= auto
    net start winmgmt
    for /f %%s in ('dir /s /b *.mof *.mfl') do mofcomp %%s


    and reboot afterwards..



    and or use AIO windows fix, by tweaking.com
