Win10, Right click on pinned programs in Start Menu no longer have file list

I'm pretty sure this occured after the latest update (which is actually four updates). I removed all four updates and the right click latest file function is still not there.

The update was: March 25, 2025-KB5055063 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5, 4.8 and 4.8.1 for Windows 10 Version 22H2 - Microsoft Support

The first update removed as listed is KB5054978. I lost track of the other 3 updates installed at the same time.

THIS IS THE EXACT MAIN REASON I WOULDN'T GO TO WINDOWS 11!!!! I'll be glad when there are no more win10 updates!

How do I get this right click function back? Below is the menu I get when I now right click on a pinned start menu, program:

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Windows update

    I can confirm that all my computers where the jumplists disappeared, and where I restored a previous backup, now have them back just by updating Windows.
    If the jumplists disappeared, after updating Windows now, they won't reappear, but they will now be able to be created again.

    KB5055612 also worked for me.

    The jumplist is black and white like the original post. It used to be a white and black (or a light blue instead of white). The later are much easier to read. I don't know if I can change that or not.

    Of my 8 computers, the jumplists didn't fail on 2, but they did fail on 6. On the ones that failed, I restored the Acronis backup to the March one and blocked updates. I don't want computers with updates installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled, which could leave the system unstable.

    On one of the computers that failed, which was the one I use the least, after reading a post on another forum that said the jumplists started working again, I think around April 25th, I clicked Check for Updates and yes, the jumplists returned, perhaps after installing KB5055612.

    Even so, I'm not going to update the computers until May. I'll skip the March updates to the May ones.

    Several users also confirm that jumplists are back.
