Windows 10: Settings disappears & Network & Action Center show blank blue popups.

Settings disappears & clicking on the system tray Network & Action Center icons show blank blue popups at least 10 tiimes per day! *Confused

I have tried several PowerShell command lines to restore these apps but with very little success. *Sad

Any ideas please?? *Smile

Taskbar popup menus and action center intermittently disappear...

Since upgrading to Windows 10, the taskbar popup menus and the Action Center frequently disappear. Right-clicking on the taskbar has no effect. Clicking on the Action Center icon on the taskbar does not open the Center but yields a box with two choices
- Open Action Center and Quiet Hours.

Any pages which already are open show when I hover over the appropriate area on the taskbar, but the menus will not popup. These menus are extremely convenient for navigation; their disappearance frustrates easily completing new tasks.

These two problems happen simultaneously and I have to restart my PC to get these functions back. After the restart everything is fine but after a while, they may go away again. I am unable to pinpoint their disappearance any more clearly than "after a
while." It seems to be an intermittent occurrence and doesn't seem to relate to which or how many apps I have running, the core temperature of my PC, or a specific time interval.

Any ideas as to what is causing this? Having to close my work and restart is a nuisance (and time-consuming).

Thank you in advance...

 

Blank Action Center

Thanks for the suggestion Smittychat but I do have background apps off and still have a blank Action Center.

 

Calendar Event(s) Not Showing Up in Action Center

Have you tried the suggestions from the link we shared?

Let's also take a look at the settings for the Mail app. Follow these steps:

• Open the Mail app.
• At the bottom of the left pane, click on the gear icon (Switch to settings).
• Select Options.
• Under Notifications, switch on the ticker for Show in action center.

Update us about the outcome.
