Windows 10 Start and Taskbar Not Working

[Bonnie David]

Hi there,

I have upgraded to Windows 10 Preview. I was able to press the Start on my keyboard and use it from the taskbar for a short period.

Now I can't use the Start, the search area (Cortana) and I can't right click any icon on the taskbar.

Please advise.

That tends to be an upgrade error. Try to right click the start menu icon. If that works hit restart and see if a restart fixes the problem. If not try settings. Type settings into Cortana and see if that opens. From there if settings app works go to update and recovery. See if there is an update. Update the PC. If that doesn't fix do a system restore, to do this you can do that in the settings app.
