Hi there! Since upgrading to Windows 10, I get a strange "bug" in the start menu.

Sometimes, when booting the PC, in the start menu, the Windows app show as "new", they are highlighted, although I tried starting them all aswell as right clicking the apps folder and choosing "Haupttreffer entfernen" (sorry, using the german version, it means remove the highlighting from the icons), but it reappears after a few reboots.

Here are two pictures:

Hope any of you can help me, it's not a critical bug for me, but it's annoying seeing the highlighted stuff every boot.

Thank you!

Hi,

Have you tried doing a clean boot?
- Open Task Manager and go to the Startup tab.
- Disable all your startup items and reboot the PC.
- After the reboot check those highlighted apps again.
- If this doesn't solve the issue try to run Windows Update and see if there any important available updates and install them all.

Hi! I tried all of the above, but none of them seem to help. It doesn't appear every reboot, but once in a while.
