Solutions to fix Start Button not working after update

Delete the Windows update files

What I could suggest is to go ahead and delete the Windows 10, 8.1 Update install files, and this might fix the annoying problem. It did fix the problem for some; after that, you can use Windows Update and get it once more, as there might have been a glitch with one of the KB install files which was subsequently fixed.

Run the Update Troubleshooter

Another quick solution is to run the built-in update troubleshooter since this issue occurred shortly after you updated your system. If you’re running Windows 10, go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshooter > select and run the Windows Update Troubleshooter.

If you’re running Windows 8.1 or Windows 7, you can run the Update Troubleshooter from Control Panel.
