That would be nice if Dropbox fixed the problem. But for now, I'm glad to know what the problem is & have been able to fix it. I have dropbox on another computer as well & have not had this...

In case anyone here is still having the problem, I may have found a solution. There are some posts about Dropbox possibly causing this. I had Dropbox installed in 1 of my profiles, so I uninstalled...

I had Dropbox & this problem as well. Uninstalled Dropbox & no more critical error. I'm hoping that this is the solution!

In case anyone on this thread is still having issues, I found something that worked for me. It seems like there may be an issue between Dropbox & Windows 10. I uninstalled it & restarted my...

That really stinks!! I was hoping a local account was safe from this, but I guess not. I haven't seen any new posts about this either, have you? I would love to find out how to resolve it as I'm...

My account that was corrupted was also a MS account. As a test, I have switched all accounts to local accounts & created a new profile for the corrupted account. So far they have not become...

No, I don't have avast antivirus. I have norton.

I have been having the same problem since last week. Windows 10 was working great until last Monday & then the critical error. I can boot in safe mode, I can access programs by right clicking on...

Thanks for the reply! I'm just very curious as to why it all of a sudden popped up. And, what to do to avoid it (if possible).

Ok, I'll have to try this.

Navylcdr - do you have any idea if this glitch affects local accounts or just MS Accts? And, why would it corrupt 1 acct & not another?

Do you know what build you have? Did you have to reinstall any programs?

This error just popped up on Monday, Sept 14. I have build 10240.

SO, this error (Critical error. Your start menu isn't working. We'll try to fix it the next time you sign in.) JUST popped up on Monday, Sept 14th. I have tried to convert the MS account to a local...
