    Just uninstall the third-party Start Menu, and the Windows one will return.

    The answer to your question was already given and I have no reason to repeat it, but one more thing....
    Please remember that the picture address must be used to post the pictures, but not the page address, where the picture is located!

    I did an uninstall, but it didn't restore
     
  5. might be you have removed startmenuexperiencehost appx package via ntlite which will result in start menu error after you uninstall third party start menu tool.

    How is possible to see them or have them, if you said in this post, you have uninstalled them?
    Consequently, you haven't removed or uninstalled them, and you've probably damaged your Windows as well.
