Windows 10: Overlap and glitch behavior on taskbar windows 11

It switches back and forth from this to normal. I just got it back from Microcenter after reinstalling windows and getting new GPU under warranty if that is of any significance.

Icons are Overlapping in Windows 11 Taskbar

Hi Atharv -

I'm Kevin B., I do apologize for the inconvenience that you're experiencing right now, let me help you sort things out.

When did the issue started?

Kindly try to adjust the size of your taskbar and check if the icons adjust along with the taskbar.

You may also try to adjust the scale and layout of your windows and check if it helps in resolving the issue with the taskbar.

Right click anywhere on the desktop and select Display Settings

Display Settings windows will pop-up, locate scale and layout

Change the value under scale and layout and check if the icons are still overlapping icons on your taskbar.

If the icons on the taskbar is still not working, kindly follow the steps below

Open the Windows PowerShell as administrator

Type the command below and press enter after the command

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Close the Windows PowerShell and restart the computer

Check if the same issue appears

Hope this will help and have a bless day!

Thanks.

Weird Win 11 taskbar behavior/bug?

So I'm working on a clean Windows 11 install, and ran into a weird taskbar behavior when rearranging icons. Moving icons (not matter what icon it is) far across to the other side (or maybe past a large number of icons) causes the taskbar to restart and move the icon back to the original spot.

It also causes a pause with other things like my keyboard, but the OS is still moving along and responsive with my mouse. But ya, that's happening and not sure how to fix this, as I'm trying to organize my icons on my taskbar into groups.

I've recorded the behavior in this attached gif.

1. I'm moving the MAIL app icon to the left
   
2. When I let go, the taskbar freezes and it restores after a few seconds (as well as the background image as you'll see in the GIF)
   
3. Then moving to the right, same behavior, but after dropping the icon moving to the right, the icon doesn't stay in its new place, but it moves back to its previous location with the same freeze/restore behavior.
   
   Please advise
