Hi, this does sound like a policy interaction if the Start menu view resets after Group Policy refresh. I’d test with a local unmanaged account or a machine outside that GPO scope to confirm. If it only happens with policy applied, capture the build number, applied Start policies, and repro steps, then send it through Feedback Hub and your normal Microsoft support channel.

This bug was present even before the recent Updates! And yes, it REVERTS every time there is an update to the Group Policy... Open an elevated Terminal and use the "gpupdate / force" command... After that open the Start Menu.
EXPECTED: List / Grid view is in place (whichever was set before)
ACTUAL: It reverts back to Category view!
