Start Menu in Windows 10 Build 10041 not working

20 minutes after the installation everything was fine and the start menu was working well. It has stopped all of a sudden now. Pressing start button as well now simply highlights the search bar and I have to rely on it to open all my apps. If anyone is facing
any similar problem, please help.
Thanks.

I'm having the same issue and its not related to any updates... Just curious, do you happen to have an Asrock mobo? laptop, tablet or desktop? what are your specs ill post mine here as-well. Also is your installation an update from build 9926 to
build 10041? are u in UEFI mode or BIOS mode?
Mine is a clean fresh install from the .ISO!
For me this issue began after my machine's 3rd reboot. Just after I installed all my system specific drivers and utils..
specs are as follow..%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Start Menu, Notification center, project spartan not working - Windows 10 TP 10049

I updated to windows 10 technical preview (Build 9926) from windows 8.1 OEM. The start menu and notification center were not working. I tried PowerShell method but that didn't help. Then I updated to Build 10049 hoping things would get better, but start
menu and notification center still didn't work. Project Spartan opened and closed. I setup an additional user account to try if it had same issue but I was not able to switch accounts. I am using Lenovo Y50-70

Hi patanai,
Regarding DISM command, you may take use of Windows 10 build 10041 ISO:
you should mount the ISO as a drive first, or take use the install Media (USB or the DVD drive), right click the ISO and choose to
mount, after that, you could access the ISO through Window Explorer.
Then open CMD with admin rights, type the following command:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /source:WIM:X:\Sources\Install.wim:1 /LimitAccess
Where the X: drive is the mounted drive letter.
Before that, please try to create a new User account and check if the issue insists.

Start menu Pins and Links are not working

Hi,
after upgrade to Build 10061 the start menu links and pins to classic win32 apps are not working anymore. If i click, for example VLC Player, nothing happens. Also if i pin VLC Player again to start menu nothing happens if i click on it. Only through search
and direct explorer access it works as expected.
Are you experiencing the same issue or can you help me out?
Thanks.
Michael

TS1381 the enter key on my numeric keypad brings up the Start menu in Windows 7

The enter key on my wired iMAC numeric keypad is not working correctly - it brings up the Start menu in Windows 7. I am running Windows 7 through Parallels. Any ideas how to switch it back?

I figured this out on my own. I had clicked a key in DoubleClick that was causing this. I unchecked it and now my enter key works normally.

Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk

I have a Toshiba Satellite c655 with WIndows 7 64 bit Home premium. The hard drive died on it, so I purchased a new hard drive and purchased the appropriate Recovery media from Toshiba. I followed the directions and installed the 3 disks on to the new hard drive. But Windows update does not work I get the following error: Windows update can not currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your PC    No matter what I try, I can not get it to work. And it will not let me install Windows Defender either. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time on this matter.

I am new to xCode and SDK Disks. My Interface Builder will not work and 'quit's unexpecteldy'. What can I do? I really want to create an applicaiton. Thanks

Hi, I am a new user to xCode and just recently downloaded a SDK Disk image and also an older version of xCode from the Apple Developer site. I opened the 'Interface Builder' for the first time and it worked. Next, when I tried to open it again (with and without the xCode 'Mainmenu.xib' attachment file from xCode) it kept showing the message "it quit unexpectedly".
I need to create an application for a project I am working on. If anyone who can resolve my problem of why the Interface Builder is not working, that will be great.
If you need additional details (like which versions etc.) please ask, for I am desperate to find an adequate solution to this problem.
Thanks.

Without intending any disrespect, if you had suspected these would be questions and if you're in a hurry for an answer, then why did you exclude the information? And yes, knowing the Mac OS X version (preferably Mac OS X 10.5.8 or 10.6.7) , as well as the Xcode version might shed some light on this. Might. And I'll presume there's a specific reason you downloaded what I will assume is an Xcode3 version.
Was this an existing Xcode project, or did you start with a new project here? If it's an existing project, it could well have a corruption or an incompatibility.
Initially, I'd probably start with a new project, and load in newly-copied source files. On the off chance the project is corrupted.
Failing that, I'd deinstall Xcode using the documented procedures, and would then reload it. If there was an old version of Xcode around on the system, sometimes wonky stuff can happen with an installation.
And FWIW, the Apple Developer Forums and the Apple mailing lists tend to see far more developer-related traffic than do these particular forums. (There's an Xcode users' mailing list around which sees regular traffic, too.)

I have checked the box "display date and time on the Menu Bar" and it does not work. Using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Anybody have a fix?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

New Release QuickVPN client 1.4.0.5 for windows 7 does not work????

New release of QuickVPN client version 1.4.0.5 for windows 7 is not working properly.
We can not connect; instead we receive this message:
"Remote Gateway is not responding, do you want to wait?"
Dear Cisco,,,,
Your release is not complete; please correct issue and advise after it has been tested.
Rgds, EM

Hi, first disable this POLSTORE.DLL again in your QuickVPN-Folder. Then start in this folder IPSEC.MSC and than IPSEC.EXE. You should get from IPSEC.EXE the error above. If not, than any other problem you have. Follow all the hints here in this thread.
If you get the same error above, than enable this POLSTORE.DLL again and start the IPSEC.EXE. You get the full info what has been gone. And within the IPSEC-Window for Local Computer you may find this FREESWAN-setting.
B.t.w. before I went this way I did export and import the IPSEC-settings from the XP-machine, as it was hinted some posts earlyer. But the way I have gone, works also with manualy deleting the FREESWAN config. With the IPSEC.EXE it will new generated in any case.
When you start via QuickVPN you may monitor also what happens within this IPSEC for Local Computer. Press F5 to keep it aktual.
From time to time the connection gets only succeeded after the second and more times. I have a very slow UMTS Internet-Access.
Juergen
Adding: These effects, getting not connected, first and during the VPN-Tunnel exists, has not changed since the top-first Version of Quick-VPN.
Dear customer, be patient, don't care about these stupid messages, click again or when the connection allready has succeeded through the VPN-tunnel do what you did like to do.
...... and again, with which configuration-scenario do the guys at Cisco test and develop .....
Fortunately, I never was a Cisco partner, only a poor user ;)

Shape Builder tool not working on shapes in a clipping mask

Hello again,
Why is the Shape Builder Tool don't work on shapes inside a Clipping Mask? The Pathfinder does work but for the Shape Builder Tool: NADA!
Thank's for answering,
Lindberg

Hi,
Thank you for answering. No it will work correctly. The Pathfinder work inside a clipping path and in any situation but not the Shape Builder Tool. Unless this is normal, I think that the specialist at Adobe should have a look at this annoying behavior and try to release an upgrade with this behavior corrected in a near futur.
Thank’s again for answering,
Robert Marchand

If you release the Clipping Mask and try the Shape Builder tool then, does it still balk at making the shape?

Hi there, I have a problem with my iPod Classic (from 2009). Everytime I connect it to my computer (Windows), iTunes does not work anymore. Music is automatically deleted on my iPod. Any suggestions please?

Hi there, I have a problem with my iPod Classic (from 2009). Everytime I connect it to my computer (Windows), iTunes does not work anymore. Music is automatically deleted on my iPod. Any suggestions please?

Thanks, for info, iPod Classic is a slower machine compared the Nano, unfortunately, if you read these discussions, majority of the freezes involved iTunes 10. Although if might be just slow and some impatient user just disconnect the iPod ands cause more problems. ( Yes I also did that but safely by doing a iPod Hard Reset, before disconnecting).
Here is the Apple support article that may help you.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717
or my usual solution for Windows Users.
Antivirus has a tendency to freeze iTunes sync Operation with iPod Classic, causing a timeout, which corrupt your iPod filesystem, so when iTunes can't read the iPod, it is pointing to this problem. Other causes is when your iPod hardisk is dying, or your battery is dying causing hardisk crashes.
My suggestion.
Connect your iPod to the PC and run chkdsk, to fix any iPod diskerror, then disconnect it, after chkdsk complete.
Disconnect your PC from Internet. (just to make sure no nasties creep into your system while you syncing.
Stop the Antivirus program
Connect your iPod to the PC, using a high speed USB 2.0 port at the back of your PC, do not use any USB Hub.
When iTunes Open up, Restore your iPod please, this is for iTunes to map correctly, to fix the corrupted filesystem.
When Restore complete, eject the iPod and reconnect again.
Sync your ipod, preferably manually Manage in small batches and disconnect after every batch, to check that all is well.
When all sync is complete, and iPod disconnected, start back your Antivirus and connect back the Internet.
Good Luck!

Per window private browsing not working, still sharing cookies

Firefox 21, per window private browsing not working. The cookies are still shared among private browsing windows and tabs. Even with private tab addon, still not working.
If I log into google in one tab, I am still logged in with that account in new private tabs and private windows.

One more question about cookies in private browsing mode.
I don't like browse a web using usual mode 'cause I don't like tonns of sites in a history. But when I start with private mode every time I get empty set of cookies and this was not quite good for me 'cause some sites store its options needed for me. In a prev. versions of FF I solved this issue in such a way: I stored some cookies in a file and every time I started private browsing I loaded them from file. But now this method gives nothing: in cookies manager all set of "non private" cookies is shown both before importing and after importing them from a file and I need to reconfigure my sites every time I start private browsing.
I'm sorry for my English.

Build is not working in SAP NWDS version 7.0.09

Suddenly the build is not working for my SAP NWDS version 7.0.09. It used to work fine before.
When you create a DC and do a Development Component --> build . nothing is happening. In the
General user output view, nothing is printed also.. I think the built is not actually happening now. So I tried uninstalling the NWDS and installing again. I also tried changing the default workspace. But still the problem do exist. what can be the possible reasons for this ? Please help.. Your valuable answers will be highly appreciated.

After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.
Read this in its entirety before you do anything. Make sure you read the sections at the end about using recovery mode.
