    Start Menu - 10061 issues


    Anyone know any fixes for these? I know a WU is "in the works", but is there a temp fix? No mail. No MSN sports (installs but not shown). Whole bunch of quirky things. Feel like the Start Menu took a giant step backward! Nice to be able to re-size and have/have not transparency, but gee.... Lots of things that used to work went bye-bye. Sad.

    You can only resize larger, can't make it smaller, at least I can't.

    Is that upgraded or clean installed. Clean installed 10061 does not have that problem. No dead icons on start menu, too. Everything launches perfectly.

    It may take you longer to find a fix for that than doing a clean install right now. :)

    Dick,

    Live tiles?
    I usually remove all that fluff 1st thing after I see it is working - a quick see, nothing extensive, so most of those apps are gone (they all would be, but MS won't let me uninstall some )

    I did try music (as delivered with the bld, not the preview vers) and weather - they seem to work as advertised after I fired them up.

    A few members have reported quirky works and some were resolved by a clean install (how I have to install EVERY release since you can install to a VHD but CANNOT update a VHD install - go figure that one!)

    The other things you might want to try after considering a fresh install from an ESD to ISO file are:

    a. Test the the corresponding preview app
    b. Re-install one of the apps to test
    c. Reset the store (Run: wsreset)
    d. renew/sync the licenses (used to be in my account on the green store)
    e. re-register the apps
    Launch an elevated Powershell and enter:
    Code:
    Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    My Start Menu no longer runs. Nor does project Spartan. It worked OK right after I upgraded then all of sudden nothing happens with I click on the start button and Spartan just shows a blue Spartan loading screen for a second then blinks out. I had this issue with build 10041 when it first came out too. A few days later, they magically started working again. Good thing I never use the start button.

    A clean instillation fixes that up.
