Windows 10: Just got 22h2 update, and I have no right-click menu apart from 'Settings' on the taskbar

I installed the 22H2 upgrade for Win11 Pro x64 this afternoon, and all I get from a right-click on the taskbar is 'Settings', all the previous options being absent. Clicking on that Settings mono-option took me to the taskbar personalization section of the Settings app, but I didn't find there any of the options that I'm missing from the taskbar right-click menu.That is a very major issue for me because I depend on an excellent nested-menu program-launching program called True Launch Bar, and it can't be activated except by clicking on the option for it in -- yes, you've guessed -- the taskbar

:)

 

Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
What do you think?

RIGHT click on the Taskbar.
Make sure "Lock the taskbar" is unchecked.
In the same menu,select "Taskbar Settings" and go through the options listed to verify the default settings are selected.
Suggest you also run---dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth---.
