hello everybody Chris here and in this
short video I'd like to show you a quick
fix you can use if your start menu in
the bottom left hand corner on windows n
or your taskbar become completely
unresponsive you can't click on any of
the items you can't hover over them and
you can't open this Start menu so
because we can't click on the taskbar at
all to access any functionality what we
can do instead is hit Windows key + R to
open up run where you will want to type
in task manager or task MGR and hit OK
to open up the task manager an alternate
way is to hit control-alt-delete and go
to task manager which will bring you to
the same spot and you may see it in a
condensed format like this you'll need
to hit more details if you don't see the
full list of tabs and we're going to
want to scroll down until we find a task
called Windows Explorer and you'll see a
little folder icon on the left so once
we found that we want to select it and
make sure that this is the one you
select you don't want to accidentally
stop any of the other processes have it
selected and go ahead and hit restart
and what's going to happen is your
screen is going to black out for a
second the taskbar at the bottom and you
start menu they're all going to refresh
and then you should see it appear again
because windows explorer has been
restored and with that you likely will
be able to open up the Start menu again
and continue using the taskbar without
having to restart your computer so I
hope that helps some of you guys out
there thank you for watching I've been
Chris if they still help you out
