We use group policy to redirect desktop and start menus for our machines. This works perfectly in Windows 7. However if the policy is applied to a W10 LTSB machine we can only click on items in the start menu if they start with the letter S
All desktop icons are working OK
It's only items in the Start Menu, if they don't start with S, we cannot select or click on them.
I did a test using the Microsoft Office 2016 Folder. As soon as it is renamed to SMicrosoft Office 2016, I can access it and all the contents. Rename it back to Microsoft Office 2016 and I can no longer access it. It's the same with any renamed item e.g "Outlook" doesn't work, "sOutlook" works.

From what I can make out this seems to be related to the user profile. (We are using roaming profiles)
If I logout of the machine and then delete my roaming profile folder from the server (i.e. username.v6). When I login to the PC again, the Start Menu works perfectly. After which I logout.
The problems reoccurs on the second login and all logins after this.
Still no idea why this is happening though.
