Can a cable make a difference? Yes it can!
Today I switched from using an HDMI cable to a usb c to Displayport cable. Amazingly, the two part Start Menu issue I have been reporting disappeared after the cable switch.
The problem:
A while back I asked why my Windows 10 Start Menu was opening in two parts. First, the top part of the Start Menu would appear followed by the lower half of the Start Menu.
This issue appears on two Intel Nuc's. Nuc8i7beh, Nuc7i7bnh.

Again, much to my surprise this issue disappears when a usb c to displayport cable is used instead of an HDMI cable.
