Windows 10: My work computer doesn't show me "Taskbar Settings" under the Personalization menu in Settings.

My work computer doesn't show me "Taskbar Settings" under the Personalization menu in Settings. If I try to "search" for taskbar setting, the prompt appears, when i select it, nothing happens, it just stays in the same window. If i navigate to personalization menu, i can only see "Dynamic Lighting" and "Text Input", nothing else appears
