Windows 10 - Start Icon

My Windows 10 Start button no longer responds to a left click. I now have to resort to right clicking that icon to shut down my laptop. Does anyone have a solution for this?

My start button is not responding on left click. I have been working on it for days, all kind of changes in Settings etc etc.
and restore by an earlier Restore Point; I will try to call the support of this pc (Asus) tomorrow, so I downloaded
teamviewer.org, in that way the support tech can see in real time what the problem is.
Hope you can get it fixed too.

Where is avast located? (can I run it in the "Run window"?

If you ask " where is avast?", it means you don't have it installed.
If so, you can forget about it. Your solution lies somewhere else.
