Windows 10: MIcrosoft 11 lack of Performance and greyed out TaskBar

3 questions:1. Does anyone know why 1/3 of the TaskBar is greyed out and unavailable? 2. Why is everything slower? Rebooting, Excel, Word, Powerpoint, Edge are slower and less responsive. 3. Is there a way to go back to version 10?
