    Misaligned taskbar after update


    Hey,I installed windows 11 few days ago and everything worked fine. Last night PC updated itself while shutting down and after that update taskbar have been misaligned. I've tried to change resolution and scaling. Also checked sfc scan and chkdsk which seems to be fine. My second monitor does have the taskbar on the right place though.Some reason I couldn't attach photos here so here is imgur link.https://i.imgur.com/sU2qGYn.png

    Windows 10 Title Menu buttons are misaligned with the pointer

    Thank you for the replay, Claudeir. Unfortunately, none of this seemed to help. Please see my comments:

    - Reverted the "Scale & Layout" back to "Recommended" and restarted the computer, did not improve the misalignment. "Resolution" was already at "Recommended" so no change necessary.

    - My laptop monitor has no physical buttons, nevermind one to auto-adjust the screen.

    - I did the Office App repair step, didn't help the issue even after a system restart. There isn't a "Restore" option, but a "Reset". I am afraid to do that and lose app data as is indicated. To be clear, is this what you are suggesting in this step?

    - I do not see an option to repair Outlook individually in the list of apps, I think it must be included in the Microsoft Office app that I "Repaired' in the previous step. Is this your understanding as well? I also don't see Word, PowerPoint, etc.

    Regardless of a couple of system restarts in between each of these steps, I still have a misalignment on my laptop screen. Can you think of any additional steps/actions that may be helpful?
