I just did a clean install on W10 and change my bios to UEFI (which it supports.) I'm having this intermittent problem with the Windows "Start" Button in the lower left. It just stops working - left clicking doesn't do anything, although right-clicking does. I just have the basics installed now.

Also, my Windows "Start" key on my keyboard stops working as well. I checked on a keyboard checker and the key itself is fine. I have to log out/back in to get it to work again. Annoying!

Any thoughts?

Try and perform a repair install and see if the windows file corruption is removed. I would like to point out that there may be corruption on your installer to begin with. Have you verified that the bootable installer isn't corrupt by downloading another copy of Windows 10's ISO via Microsoft's Media Creation Tool?

Could you also pass on your full systems specs?
