I have read many solutions (especially the ones about the "Enable
dragging and dropping" option) but it still doesn't work. In registry
editor I have tried to use
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Policies/Explorer
and set the key name of NoChangeStartMenu to 0; nothing still worked.

Any help?

Look for a NoChangeStartMenu value in this key also...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

NoChangeStartMenu
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

Description
Prevents users from using the drag-and-drop method to reorder or remove
items on the Start menu. Also, this entry removes context menus from the
Start menu.

This entry stores the setting of the Disable drag-and-drop context menus on
the Start Menu Group Policy. Group Policy adds this entry to the registry
with a value of 1 when you enable the policy. If you disable the policy or
set it to Not configured, Group Policy deletes this entry from the registry,
and the system behaves as though the value is 0.

Value Meaning
0 (or not in the registry) The policy is disabled or not configured. Users
can drag and drop Start menu items and can display context menus.

1 The policy is enabled. Users cannot drag and drop Start menu items or
display context menus.
