THANK YOU SO MUCH! 3 years later you're still being a great help. this was the third video I watched on this issue, and im so glad it was able to finally resolve it :) keep up these videos man, they are much appreciated!
I just watched several videos on how to fix the start menu and search bar problem... But this vid helped me to resolve it... I tried 1 2 3 4 methods and did not work. finally, method 5 resolved my problem... thank you so much
THANKYOU SO MUCH! My laptop's start menu weren't working for almost a week, we tried everything but it won't budge, on top of that I can't access setting, your fifth method (creating new user) worked!!! Now my laptop is operating as normal again!! Thankyou so much 😭😭🙏🏻
Creating a new user solved my issue. I read in Microsoft forum that sometimes when a user account gets corrupted such issues occur. It would be great if u mentioned at the end of section 4 to create a new admin account and migrate your settings to the new admin and then remove the corrupt admin account. 👍 Thanks a lot.
@@dharmayudha3401 in my case all the files that were not user specific were accessible to the new user account already. Only those in the corrupt user's onedrive needed to be cut and pasted in some other directory to be accessible to the new user. Hope it helps.
Thank you so much!! Safe mode restart & then a normal restart fixed my issue! I've had this happen to me like once a month from Windows updates & it's INFURIATING!!! Thank you for saving me hours of grief & time!!!!
Thanks a lot ... Finally 4th worked, I was frustrated from last 2-3 days and working without start menu and today total day wasted on searching how to fix that issue...On this video I got total information .Thank you so much ...
@@sirukadhai289 me toh (sad noise) i cant risk cz i cant download anything i cant evn download microsoft edge😐😐😐 n tat certificate errors always occur no matter evn if i change my time settings 😔😔
I've been working a ticket for 3 hours due to this issue. I tried the first two steps at first but didn't work, I did a bunch of things in between and i did both steps again and it worked. Thanks so much for this video!!!
It really worked for me.. I was struggling to solve this problem since past few weeks... thank u so much for sharing such helpful videos.. thank u so so so much❤❤
Dear brothers and sisters if your taskbar or file manager dosent work , just go with the final step (resetting the pc without deleting files) , hope this would be a good suggestion
Dude how do we even do that if you literally cannot get to setting lmfao. Windows + I doesnt work the ahortcuts dont work. Pressing the windows icon on the task bar doesnt work. So how am i supposed to get to setting ?
I came here to fix my little problem with my search bar It helped me fix the reboot thing my PC would do every time I tried to use it tysm it earned my sub
Just a quick reminder I have used all methods and resetting my pc was the only way I would make it work but just from my present experience of resetting I want to tell you all that it may take even an hour like mine did and have connection issues with one drive. It will definitely take mote more than 40 min , so just remember to finish all your work you wanna do and note down the apps which will be deleted because you will need to reinstall them again
You forgot to mention the thing where you dig down into the control panel and reset the indexing settings. That works perfectly for me every time! :-) however, it is really annoying and almost impossible to find unless you know where to look. I had to dig through several internet forums just to find it, because it obviously wouldn't appear with the lack of start menu search results, and it also doesn't show up in the Windows 10 settings app.
@@Cestlavie-7 It seems to be a lot easier now with the latest update installed: 1. From your Desktop, hold down the Windows Logo Key and press i. 2. When the settings menu comes up, click on either "Search", "Cortana", or "Cortana And Search", the name simply depending on whether or not (and if so, then how strictly) you've hacked Cortana out of your life. I did it fully, so I had to choose "Search". 3. The rest should all be the same. Next, click the "Searching Windows" tab on the left. 4. Scroll down to the bottom and pick "Advanced Search Indexer Settings". 5. Click or tap on the "Advanced" button. 6. Finally, choose "Rebuild".
After trying multiple methods from different videos your second method was what finally helped me solve my problem. Thank you very much, really appreciate your video and clearity
@@WindowsChimp bro this thigh happed to a while ago and windows bootfile missing came after a few booting times and u got to the shop they fixed it but now it's just 2 days and it's coming again plz help
After going through many, many videos trying to find a solution, this one finally did it. I had to resort to resetting the PC, but thank you for showing us how to do so from the Task Manager. Really appreciate it, subbed!!
I tried literally everything I could find on Google and nothing worked. Then I found your video and in less than 10 minutes my issue was solved! THANK YOU!
i spent about an hour trying various things to solve this issue, and the second method in this video fixed my issue! thank you so much, you're a lifesaver!
😹 Beautiful video 📹, Quick, intuitive and straight to the point 👈.... Although I did try to follow all the methods given, it refused, especially the last crucial part of the sfc command, it kept saying that that the restrictions that have taken effect on my pc are not allowing it to happen, but the last option was to reset my pc 💻 which wasn't what I wanted to do but I had to.. 👀 It really helped me 😣 Alot my guy 😎, thanks ❤.. #CaveConscious
safe mode it wont start and my browser won't even open. I noticed all the search bars in any explorer won't work. This happened after avast full scan found a bunch of my system 32 was root kits and quarantined them and restarted. Probably were infected real ones so I'm missing like 6 system32 files and one of them probably controls the windows explorer. only option now is a fix reinstalll
Thank you for literally saving my computer. Half of my computer was freezing and I cant even shut it off because I cant acess the start menu. (No, powering it off manually with the button doesnt work. It just puts the computer into sleep mode) This helped a lot. Tysm!
Somebody call master chief cuz this is it!!!!All day ive been trying to fix a firewall reset i did to try and get open nat type in warzone and it literally wrecked everything , but step 6 is what finally saved my pc!!!!!
Thank you very much. You saved my life the only thing that worked the reset apps method. I have an advice to all NVIDIA Users don't update your drivers that got released less than week !!!! It ruined Discord every 10 seconds gets crashed !!!!! That's not everything.. When I uninstalled that driver and rolled back. Guess what happened? Windows Start Menu didn't open and also wallpaper engine settings got back to default till I found this video :)
