As we sometimes say, Windows 10 is a newborn system, so we cannot ask for much less the stability that Windows 7 offers us, by way of example, so many times we find some bugs that have an easy solution . We are providing these solutions little by little in Windows News, so that you get the most out of your Windows 10 device. This time we are going to fix that problem that some users find that Windows 10 Start Menu and Taskbar Freeze, with this simple tutorial.

Sometimes the Start Menu, Cortana or the Taskbar do not respond in Windows 10 no matter how much we click on it, despite everything, it has an easy solution if we use the command line. We will have to enter a text that will make them restart, thus we will save more complicated tasks to obtain the same object. So forget about restoring or formatting.

We start with Windows PowerShellTo open it, since we cannot enter Cortana or the Start Menu, we will execute «Symbol from system«, We will write»Shell Power»And after pressing«ENTEROKAY»It will open automatically. We must take a look at the top of the window to verify that we have administrator permissions. If we do not get it from this dynamic, we try it with the right button of the mouse on "Start" and open "Command Prompt as administrator".

Once inside we enter the following command line:

GET-APPXPACKAGE -ALLUSERS | FOR EACH {ADD-APPXPACKAGE -DISABLEDEVELOPMENTMODE -REGISTER «$ ($ _. INSTALLLOCATION) APPXMANIFEST.XML»}

We wait for Windows PowerShell to complete the task, we don't care what text it returns. Now we see how the Start Menu and the Taskbar have been restarted and are working correctly.

It does not work?

The other option is to try creating a new user account on the same computer with Windows 10 and access it. After accessing, we restart and see how everything has returned to normal.
