Build 10061 - Start Menu not opening programs other than Modern UI applications

When I attempt to open a program via the start menu absolutely nothing happens, unless I am attempting to open a Modern UI app.  I've tried deleting the shortcut and "re-pinning" it to the start menu and it still does not work.  Any
ideas?

Assuming you are using build 10061.
Will it work if you right click at the program shortcut > select Run As Admin ?
excerpt from Insider Hub:
Here are some known issues for this build
We know this one will be a bit painful but there is a bug with this build in which Win32 (desktop) apps won’t launch from the Start menu. The workaround is to use search to find and launch these apps and pin them to your taskbar for quick access.

  • Windows 10 Build 10041 start menu not working

    I have installed the Windows 10 Build 10041 update yesterday. But since then I can’t leave my computer till it sleep automatically. Otherwise my computer will complete died and I need to press the power bottom to restart Windows.
    But at that time, the Wndows start menu is still working.
    However, this morning I find that my computer start menu is not working, and the search bar, Windows key, notice board icon at right side and internet icon is also not working.  I have use the control panel to check the problem but
    it could not find any faults.

    Hi,
    What's the type of your current user account? Built-in Administrator account or others?
    Generally speaking, you can try to create a new user account to fix this problem. If no use, please try to use system restore to revert your system to a former normal time point for test.

  • Start Menu Not Auto Updating After Installation of New Applications

    // Also reported via Windows Feedback Tool //
    After the installation of several applications, the new Start Menu does not necessarily automatically update to reflect the added programs. 
    The application’s folder is properly installed under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs, but it will not show under the Start Menu until the user logs out and logs in.
    Interestingly enough, this behavior is not consistent.  Some applications installations are immediately reflected while others are not.
    In this particular example, LibreOffice 4.3 was installed.

    Hi @Senttu 
    Thank you for your reply.
    You can try running the file checker to look for and try to repair corrupted files.
    Go to the command prompt.
    Right click and run as administrator.
    Type sfc /scannow and press enter.
    You can also try  using the Windows troubleshooter.  Diagnose and repair Windows File and Folder Problems automatically.
    If the issue should still remain, I suggest contacting  MIcrosoft for assistance.

  • New Build, No Start Menu

    On the new build, the start menu does not work. (Have to pin to taskbar to open programs). Please reply when a fix is available as this is a known issue.

    Read the known issues section.
    Pointing out the obvious error in your post does not make my post abusive Vegan. Nice try though.
    you assumption is false, counter example
    I did not mark it as abusive, by the time I did read the post, it was already marked by someone else

  • Edited clips will not open with other apps

    After editing video clips using Adobe Premiere Elements, clips will not open with other apps (like VLC, Media Player, etc...)

    Just saw your post and wanted to leave a just in case note.
    From the information that you and John T. Smith just exchanged, it would appear that you attempted to play back the saved project file (project.prel) with your VCL Player and Windows Media Player. You need to export the Timeline content to a file format that is supported by the player of your choice. By now, you have probably been there and done that.
    This is the just in case note about projects and their project.prel file....let us say that you have two separate projects and you decide to put the content of one project into another. Cannot do. One cannot import a project.prel into another project.prel. You would have to export the Timeline of one and then import that export in the other project. Alternatively, those with Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1, 9.0/9.0.1, and 10 could use the ClipMate program to copy/paste between programs without issues. However, with Premiere Elements 11 there are some problems in that regard.

  • A Pages document will not open.  Others do, but are slow.  Need this document!

    A Pages document will not open and there is a screen annoucement it will not open.  Other Pages documents do open, but are slow.  The one that will not open now was also very slow.  My last visit to the Apple store the Genius Bar said I needed a new HD.  Is this the final straw and it's time to take it in and let them replace it?  Under warrently.

    Do we know what document won't open?
    Do we also know what version of Pages you are talking about, on what MacBook Pro?
    Something tells me you are not using Mac OSX (10.7), the only thing you have noted.
    If your Mac is running slow, the usual reason is your hard drive is too full. OSX likes 10-15% free space.

  • 9.4.1 update: can not open an other library from an another computer with same update !!

    new iphoto 9.4.1 update: can not open an other library from my second computer with same update !
    this always worked properly on iphoto before ! reorganize my photo library from my other computer will break my neck !
    the first  library from my first computer works ! thanks for help !! regards

    So you have two identical copies of the iPhoto library on two different machines? YES
    and again How does the option launch and using the select library command not work ->
    it simply does not accept the copy of the imac library . if i want to choose the library, it is not accepted to be chosen.
    so i tried over network to choose the other way round as you suggested (labtop library on the imac)  and it worked , but it ruined (as i thought) my original library of the imac ! i could restore it from the back up , BUT this is simply strange, i can not find the restored libary of the imac on it´s original place  ! it must be hidden somewhere !

  • When syncing with itunes, got error message saying had error and now ipad2 will not do anything other than showing the USB cable with arrow pointing to Itunes on screen.  have done the reset and restart, but still get same thing.

    when syncing with itunes, got error message saying had error and now ipad2 will not do anything other than showing the USB cable with arrow pointing to Itunes on screen.  have done the reset and restart, but still get same thing.  Ipad does not show up in itunes even though cable plugged in.  Have shut down and restarted Windows 7 computer.

    I had done all of that to no avail.  I did call Apple Tech Support and after he suggested I try a USB port in the rear of the Win 7 computer, things starting working again.  I had tried switching the USB port at the front of the machine but that had not helped.  Everything is good to go again.  thanks for  your reply

  • Looking for a less expensive program other than Photoshop CS6

    Looking for a less expensive program other than Photoshop CS6 and was wondering if Photoshop Elements is the answer. Does Photoshop Elements read PSD files, create layers, can you change the levels and color balance?

    Yes, and much more.
    Why not try the 30 days trial version which has all the features of Elements ?

  • Taking recommendations for good sync/backup program (other than Time Machine)

    Hello everyone,
    I'm on the lookout for a good file synchronization program (other than Time Machine) which I can use to make one-way backups of specific subdirectories. The ideal program would do the following:
    1) Do one-way synchronization of user-selectable subdirecotries within a directory A to directory B either on same hard drive or on external hard drive
    2) Can be set up to make sure that B has the exact subdirectories/files as A, deleting any that are not present in A and adding anything that is added to A or anything that has been changed in A
    3) Will not generate useless junk files that require me to manually clean up after them
    4) Will not alter files and directories in A in any way
    5) Will be inexpensive
    6) Will not interfere with Time Machine, which I already use to backup multiple volumes to a single external hard drive.
    I checked the App store first, but was disappointed that all three apps had mixed reviews, and none had recent reviews attesting to their efficacy (which I always interpret as a bad sign).
    I also did a quick search for third-party programs, but their websites will only have good reviews, so naturally I'm checking here first.
    Basically, I want this program so that I can use it to sychronize files to my Cloud (Box, Google Docs, Dropbox) directory to share with my friends, and also to make redundant backups of sensitive files to additional external hard drives not being utilized by Time Machine.
    Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    CCC can be set up to copy just selected directories, or the entire disk.  It does not need to make a full clone (although a full clone is a good way to have*something* that functions in case of emergency).
    I take the approach of using a tool that can do much more than simple because it can do *that much more* in a pinch.
    I gave my best advice, and have not investigated in more specialized tools.
    Good luck to you.

  • Any program other than safari won't detect internet

    any program other than safari won't detect internet eg. itunes, skype etc. I can't even system update.
    Safari has no problems and I can use the internet fine.
    Someone told me to check proxy settings and make sure "Use Passive FTP Mode" was ticked which it is...
    Does anyone have any suggestions? I urgently need to fix this and I can't get an appointment to see anyone until next week.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Kaan for your reply,
    Yes, Network does indicate that Airport is connected to the internet. Internet Explorer (OS X) connects instantly over the same network. Restarting Safari doesn't work. Waiting a few minutes doesn't work. Choosing a different web site to access doesn't work. Safari (1.3.1) has worked beautifully for months over this same network.
    Thanks again and Happy New Year.

    As Tom said the FCS forum is the better place to post the question.
    Here is Apple's best practices doc for installing both on the same system.
    BTW, FCP7 is part of the FCS 3 suite of apps.
