View 15 RepliesStart Menu Button Right Click Menu Fails
Sep 4, 2015I have just upgraded to Win10 and most items on the "Power User Command Menu" do not work if the menu is accessed by right-clicking the Start Menu button on the Task Bar. The only items that do work are Search, Run, Shut down and Desktop. If the menu is accessed by the other means, the menu items work fine.
I've tried SFC and a day searching the web with no luck.
The computer is a Toshiba laptop running an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor T5500 with 4 Gb of memory. I don't know what the proper name for the "Power User Command Menu" may be, but that's the only way I've seen it referenced elsewhere.
When Click Start Button No Access To Start Menu
Dec 29, 2015This problem is on a desktop computer (HP Pavilion). When I click the start button, the start menu does not display. Pressing the Windows key on the keyboard also does not take me to the start menu.
I can access the right-click menu on the start button and most of the items on the right-click menu respond correctly when clicked (a few don't. No response from "Search" and "Desktop"). I installed Windows 10 over a month ago and have had no problems until now. Everything was working fine yesterday and to the best of my knowledge I have changed no settings since then.
Cortana No Longer Searching The Start Menu?
Jul 28, 2015I'm in the habit of launching most applications by hitting the Windows key, typing a few letters of the app name, and then hitting Enter.
Unfortunately, the Cortana search box is no longer able to find any applications. It shows me a list of local documents, and offers to search "My Stuff" or the web.
When I choose to search "My Stuff," I can filter by Documents, Folders, Apps, Settings, Photos, Videos and Music. Selecting "Apps" invariably returns no results. I am left to manually navigate through the Start menu which, while not terribly difficult, is more of a hassle than I'm used to.
I've only noticed it on the RTM build (10240), while the previous build (10166) worked fine for me.
Desktop Flickers When Click On Start Menu For Longer?
Sep 17, 2015after been using Windows 10 since launch I've got annoyed by those silly things whenever I click start menu for longer than like 2 or 3 minutes. When it happens, the windows desktop flickers to black. I uninstalled the drivers and used the microsoft generic drivers and it does the same thing. Of course, when I go to safe mode and I can't use the start menu as it just opens and closes in less than the second on its own. Because of this I've been researching this through Google and it somehow all of that kinda doesn't seem to relate to that. Also, I get the error message when I shut down and I couldn't get to see the error message because windows shuts all that stuff down.

Ethernet No Longer Works
Aug 2, 2015I upgraded to windows 10 on my desktop pc on july 29th and haven't had any problems since. I know that upgrade/updates are forced to happen so when random issues occurred today I feel that maybe there was an update sent out? My ethernet no longer works, only to connect outside my LAN, but I can still remote desktop and access the computer so the port/cable still work and the router works for all other comps over ethernet. The internet goes in for a split second when I reset the adapter but then instantly goes out. I also noticed when launching a steam game the xbox controller no longer works to control it despite it working yesterday and the controller will control steam itself just not the games. Should I downgrade to windows 8.1 again, since I don't have internet anymore any fixes wouldn't even reach my computer?

Dec 19, 2015I was having no problems with Windows 10 until the last few days when Windows 10 automatically updated. It seems I have lost the function of right-clicking on the Start Menu button also since this latest upgrade Windows 10 will not recognize my Saietek joystick...I'm not sure if these 2 issues are linked but they both started happening in the last 2 days.

Networking :: Open Network No Longer Works?
Nov 5, 2015Prior to W10 I had a network NOT using Homegroup. Network worked who needs it? Now, I see some of my devices on the network, but when I try to share files I get a window requesting user name and password. Never used passwords before. I think Homegroup is sneaking in there, but all the devices say they don't have a Homegroup but some of them say the see a Homegroup on other devices. I've disabled Homegroup on all devices tried changing advanced network settings to no avail.

View 2 RepliesInstallation :: Win 8.1 Dual Boot No Longer Works
Sep 15, 2015I have 4 partitions.
1 => System Reserved
2 => Win 10
3 => Win 8.1
4 => Storage
When I try to boot into the win 8.1 it gives me an error. Even after restoring the win 8.1. partition from a Macrium image.
What gives? Two days ago I decided I wanted to shrink the win 8.1 partition.
I made a macrium image of my Win 10 partition (because I'm not crazy) and I already had a macrium image of win 8.1. I started shrinking the 8.1 and the computer went unresponsive so I rebooted. I used EASEUS Partition Manager.
I found out later that the reason the computer halted was because the version of EASEUS I used was outdated.
I attempted to boot into 8.1 and was greeted with the error. (Will update this post presently with the picture.)
I updated EASEUS and successfully shrunk the 8.1 partition. I took that unallocated space and enlarged the WIN 10 partition. Still unable to boot into 8.1.
Used macrium to overwrite the 8.1 partition.
Computer refused to boot completely. No Win 10 or Win 8.
Macrium restored the Win 10 partition, and the Win 8.1 partition. Discovered something interesting. Macrium restored the partitions as if I had never shrunk the 8.1 partition and enlarged the Win 10 partition. Is it supposed to do that?
Still unable to boot into Win 8.
Right Click Start Button Menu Color
Dec 27, 2015Had a buddy pick up a laptop (W10 home) (lavono) setting up his web connection WIFI, when I was messing around with things I did a rfi9ght mouse click on the start menu where the other items are, and found it was "white" background with black lettering??
I was wondering how to set this? I have the black background with white lettering (W10 Pro) is this the way it is for the different versions home vs pro, or is there a setting to change this? I'd rather have the background white with black lettering.
Yes I know about the personal settings and the colors thing, and the items to check, but nothing seems to change that one area as far as I can see. There's no white color to choose on my list of colors anyway.
Apps :: QIF File Association No Longer Works After Upgrade

View 1 RepliesCannot Find Files Or Search The Web In Start Button / Menu
Oct 23, 2015I got Windows 10 home a few months now. No problems whatsoever with the installation or setup/usage and it'd fast and bug free. My problem happened just last week...
I used to press the WIN key & S to search for files. Or i can press the START button and just start typing. It will search for my files & search the internet (cortana search). Now nothing happens when i search.
When i press WIN+S, and type something, it just sit's there doing nothing, but it seems like Cortana is thinking or about to give out information, but nothing happens at all. Same as on the start menu. I type out something and no information is given, it wont search for any of my files or nothing.
I am at a lost. In the past, it worked perfectly, like Windows 8.1. Press START, & type.
Start Menu With Roaming Profile And Search Button
Oct 13, 2015I've recently made a huge research about Roaming profiles in windows 10 and how to set up the start menu layout and all of that i've tried to test it before i upgrade all the computers in the campus i made some good and bad results, the good results was i was able to export the start layout and implement it in the GPO works really fine and i was able to create the v5 roaming profile with same shortcuts and bookmarks and default settings and home page and disabling cortana by GPO and disabling the online search feature within the settings of the roaming profile,
now for the bad results were that the sign in could take from 25 till 40 seconds so the log off, and the major issue is that when you logon with the roaming profile the start menu and search are not available, it means that when you click on start menu the whole start menu doesnt pop up just nothing happens same as the search function. I am running windows 10 enterprise .
I forgot to mention that even the EDGE icon from taskbar disappears so i think its not either moving files or folders arent being synchronized im not really sure. IE remains...
Adding Hibernate To Power Button At Start Menu
Sep 6, 2015I followed the guide to enable Hibernate mode, but is there a way to show it in the Power options?
All I can see now is "Sleep", "Shut down" and "Restart". Was I supposed to see "Hibernate" after following this guide:
Hibernate - Enable or Disable in Windows 10 ?
Or maybe in order to see I need to restart my computer? Or this guide only enables hibernate but doesn't add this to the "Power" button itself?
