When I left click on the windows 10 start button to bring up the apps page and icon for bringing up list of programs nothing happens. This started within the last week.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello;
Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!
I read your post about the Win10 Start Button no longer working and wanted to help.
With MS pushing out Win10 updates every week, it's not uncommon for a working PC to suddenly have things stop working.
Wish this was a simple fix, but as this linked thread shows, this is not: Taskbar/Start button not working! - Windows 10 Forums
All I can suggest is that you work through that thread and hopefully, one of the fixes will work.
Good Luck

Thak you for your answer to my question.
I didn't even think it might a software problem related to a Microsoft or Norton update.
Your answer was spot on.
Then I got to thinking what else could be done. I thought that if I could find where the restore point screen was, I could restore the computer to a point before the problem started. That did the trick.
I thank you once again for your answer!!!

Here is how to fix Start Button Not Working Issue In Windows 10
1- Open Windows PowerShell as Administrator.
2- Paste the following command in PowerShell window and press Enter key:
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
3- Wait for PowerShell to complete the command.
4- When it finishes, try hitting Start and hopefully it’ll start working.
