Hello,
Since I got Windows 10 Home, I've been experiencing two strange phenomena: during the day, after normal use of the PC, the Start menu, Edge, or Cortana disappear and are no longer accessible. Additionally, when I shut down the PC, I get a message: "Task Host Windows" that prevents the shutdown and forces me to do a hard reset. What should I do to fix these issues? Other than that, I am satisfied with Windows 10.
Thank you in advance.
Best regards

hello ,
for the start menu, Edge or Cortana:
method 1
1: Press CTRL ALT DEL at the same time.
2: Left click on Task Manager.
3: Left click on "File", then "Run a new task"
4: In the box type: PowerShell (don’t forget to check "Create this task with administrative privileges.") and click OK, a blue screen opens
5. copy/paste this command:
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
then press enter
6 wait for the operation to finish (a few minutes)
method 2
When you are on your session do:
- Ctrl + ALT + Del
From there, hold down the SHIFT key until the end of the procedure. (SHIFT is the arrow button up, down left on the keyboard)
- Click on the power button at the bottom right of the screen, click on "restart"
you are now on a blue page
release SHIFT button
click on choose an option
troubleshoot
settings
restart (at the bottom of the window)
choose f4 (safe mode)
let Windows load
Once on the desktop, press the Windows key + R, then type msconfig in the box. Press enter.
- Go to the Services tab, then sort by the "Service" column (by clicking on the column title)
- Uncheck the "Windows Error Reporting Service" box, click OK, restart your computer.
for Task Host Windows

In the Task Scheduler:
On the left:
- expand Task Scheduler Library, Microsoft, Windows,

In the central part:

If Rac Task does not appear:
