Does anyone know what I should try next to resolve? I did confirm that reverting to the old version fixes it, but I would like to use this build if possible.
- This issue appears to have been resolved. I had backed off to the older feature update, but Today when checking for updates, I received an Nvidia graphics driver and the feature update. It worked correctly this time!

- Hello,
Try to re-register Start Menu, see if it helps:

Let us know if this helps!
Note: Included link in this reply refers to blog post by a trusted Microsoft MVP.- Thanks for the tip but that did not change the behavior.
- I also see errors like this in the System log:
The server Microsoft.Windows.StartMenuExperienceHost_10.0.22593.1_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy!App did not register with DCOM within the required timeout.- My taskbar after the update is not working and I can't open everything .
