How to Enable the new Start Menu in Windows 10 version 2004<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open up the Settings app<\/a> and navigate to Update & Security<\/strong> – > Windows Update<\/strong>. Click on the “View optional updates<\/strong>” link. If this link is missing, click on the “Check for updates<\/strong>” button first.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  2. Expand the “Other updates<\/strong>” category. Check the “2020-07 Cumulative Update Preview for Windows 10 version 2004 for x64-based systems (KB4568831)” option and then click on Download and install<\/strong>.\n

    \"\"\n<\/li>\n

  3. Once the update is installed, reboot your computer. Next, open NotePad, copy the following lines into it, save the file with .reg extension.
    \nWindows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    \n[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\FeatureManagement\\Overrides\\0\\2093230218]
    \n\"EnabledState\"=dword:00000002
    \n\"EnabledStateOptions\"=dword:00000000<\/code><\/li>\n
