I faced a similar issue! The following worked for me
1 Right click on the Start Button and select “Run”
2 Type “regedit”
3 Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Microsoft>Windows>CurrentVersion>Explorer>Advance
4 Create a new DWORD (32-bit) value, call it “EnableXamlStartMenu”
5 Restart Explorer from task manager.
Arasan, that no longer works in the current build 10074.
