I have several computers running Win. 10!
This problem only occurs on my 32bit machine, where the Left Click Mouse on Start Panel doesn't work any longer?
Is there a ' FIX ' for this?
Thank you
Does right click at the Start button work ?
If it does, please follow this..........................
Right click at Start button > click Command Prompt (Admin) > at the flashing prompt, copy/paste this.......
sfc /scannow
> press Enter.
It will take quite sometime.
When finished, it will give you one of the 3 reports...............(paraphrasing)
1. No integrity violation.
2. Found corrupt files and repair successful.
3. Found corrupt files but unable to repair.
If the report is #1, your solution lies elsewhere.
If the report is #2, check if your problems have been resolved.
If the report is #3, use this method................
In the same Command Prompt (Admin) windows, copy and paste this command...........
dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
> press Enter.
Again it will take some time.
When finished, it will give you a report.
Many thanks,
I'll get on to it now!
Much appreciated!
Still no change?
Do I need to reboot now for it to take effect?
Thanks
Why did you run the dism ?
Was it because the sfc /scannow gave you report #3 "Found corrupt files but unable to repair." ?
If yes, then run the sfc /scannow again. BUT this time just the sfc /scannow. Don't run the dism anymore.
I must admit I jumped straight to running the repair command.
I recall the other day & got #1, no errors found.
I now have as attached i.e. NO integrity violations found
Thanks
Then, there is no need to do the dism at all.
You do not have corrupt system files.
Your problem lies elsewhere.
My suggestion is the do a repair install.
It will allow you to keep your files, settings and apps.

Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade
Looks far too involved for me!
I guess I'll just live with it unless another Auto-Upgrade comes along!
Thanks for your help!
Maybe this method will change your mind. Read it over...............
