Windows 10 start button not working

Hello, I am using a windows 10 preview build, the most recent one. Just last night the start menu stopped working, it doesn’t work on the keyboard either. If I click it, a loading sign will appear for half a second but It won’t do anything. Cortana seems to work fine. My antivirus is AVG. I really like a lot of the features of Windows 10 and that’s why I would like to buy a license, however the bugs are a problem. Hope a fix is found for this 🙂

I will be glad to help you with the issue you have with the computer. I understand the frustration when things don’t work the way it should.
