General Computer Support / Re: Left-Clicking Start Doesn't Work after Logging In

Yeah, I'm really hoping it doesn't... but knowing my luck thus far, it's a real likelihood. I will definitely let you know if it does occur again here, or if it doesn't have any issues after the next week or so.

Thanks! I just ran it...  I don't use Cortana. :)

Thanks, Boggin, for the quick response! I was just about to add that I just ran the Tweaking.com Windows Repair Application, and was able to get the start menu to work again. But I think this happened as well a couple of days ago where after running the Windows Repair app, it worked again but then the issue started again a day or two later. I'm going to make a backup image right now!

Hi,

I could really use some help... I've been having this issue intermittently over the last several months. The problem I am having is that I cannot left-click the start button after logging into my desktop. I can't search anything either. I can right-click everywhere though, and I can left-click anything on my desktop or anything I have pinned to my taskbar. The way I had "fixed" it (if you can even call it that) was after spending >1 week with several hours each day trying/searching for a fix, I did a clean install of Windows (losing all the software I had installed. That fix only lasted for a day before the issue started popping up again... which led to me doing more searching/googling for another day or two until I found out that apparently in Settings --> Accounts --> Sign-in options, there was a bug in which if you had "Use my sign-in info to automatically finish setting up my device after an update or restart" on, it would cause this issue to occur. The same left-click issue has been happening again recently (not sure if it was due to a Windows Update or not), but the fix I had found before no longer works as I don't have that setting on. I've tried disabling my antivirus, etc. and it doesn't make a difference. I ran in command prompt as admin /sfc scannow which shows no errors and dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth which unfortunately doesn't seem to help either. Running Maintenance from Windows Settings didn't make a difference either. I tried using a Windows startmenu.diagcab troubleshooter, and this is what it showed: https://imgur.com/a/x6XOQ. The second time I ran it, it showed a different error which I think is the actual problem: 
Required applications are not installed correctly. Not fixed
 
"Microsoft.Windows.ShellExperienceHost" and "Microsoft.Windows.Cortana" applications need to be installed correctly.

I also ran SoftwareRepairTool, which was unsuccessful at fixing this issue. When I run
Quote
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
command as admin in powershell, I get quite a few errors: https://imgur.com/a/Kr9By (and I tried to copy & paste below):

I'm really not sure where to go from here... but I believe the crux of the issue is related to the error I listed from the startmenu diagcab: 
Required applications are not installed correctly.
"Microsoft.Windows.ShellExperienceHost" and "Microsoft.Windows.Cortana" applications need to be installed correctly.

Any help would be much appreciated! Sorry if this was a bit long post/overwhelming... I just thought I should include everything I've done.

Thank you,
Rain (Shane)
