[SOLVED ]-Start Menu Won't Launch After Installing Windows 11 Cumulative Update (kb500563
EDIT: SOLVED. See my reply below.
I followed the directions from the Windows Insider Blog to uninstall and reinstall it, but the problem remained.
I have since uninstalled KB5005635 again, and now the Start Menu works as it should.
But I'm otherwise without this cumulative update.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I fixed it. First, I reinstalled the update, so I'd be current on everything.
Then I did the following, which was a fix I l earned on reddit:
- Open Control Panel via search.
- Navigate to Clock and Region->Date and Time->Change Time Settings
- Change the date and time to a future date (I picked a week later.)
- Go to the Internet Time tab and disable time sync
- Re-enable time sync.
Start menu now works.
This worked for me, YMMV.
Thanks for the responses evryone.
- fabrizio92Copper ContributorHi,
I have the same issue, and I tried same things.
I have upgraded from windows 10 - Reza_AmeriSilver ContributorAre you able to open search?
try perform a clean boot, take a look at:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/how-to-perform-a-clean-boot-in-windows-da2f9573-6eec-00ad-2f8a-a97a1807f3dd
Note, in case Start and Search is not working, you may press WinKey+R and then type msconfig.exe and then follow the rest of the article.- fabrizio92Copper Contributor
I don't know if is related, but after a power-off power-on (not reboot) I started power toys in admin mode, and start menu worked.
I have tryed before to perform a clean boot, but without success.

- Reza_AmeriSilver ContributorThis is really weird behavior.
I advise you to report this issue using the Feedback Hub app.- scotter60Brass ContributorI did the other day.
