  1. KB5051974 Start menu issue with Windows 10


    About a week ago we noticed that with one of our Windows 10 PCs we were having an issue with the Start Menu: "Critical Error Your Start menu isn't working. We'll try to fix it the next time you sign in. " After chasing several potential fixes, we uninstalled KB5051974 which has resolved the issue. There wasn't any direct correlation from others on internet searches at that time, but now we are seeing in internet searches that other entities appear to be experiencing this issue.In our environment, this ended up affecting 3 Windows 10 PCs, but has not affected any of our Windows 11 systems.

    :)

    Windows 10 Start menu issue

    yeah I've been less than happy with the start menu also.
    for me I for me I get freezes in start menu, especialy returning from sleep...which reminds me sleep is such a pain in the butt since I switch to Windows 10. Either waking up on its own, or system freezes when recovering from sleep

    Stardock was a nice switch from vanilla, but i wasnt gonna buy it and 30 days goes by quick.
