  3. task bar not responding

    Hi,

    There are several possible reasons why the task bar is not working as expected. One of them may be caused by a corrupted user profile. In your case, we'd like to ask for additional information to help us determine the appropriate steps to solve the issue.
    Please answer the following:

    • Have you made any recent changes or installed updates before the task bar stopped responding?
    • Was the task bar working after you have created the user profile?
    • Have you checked if the issue also exists with the other user profiles?
    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    For initial troubleshooting, you can follow the steps in this article:
    Troubleshoot problems opening the Start menu or Cortana
    .

    We hope to hear from you soon.

    Task bar keeps moving

    Hi Timbo,



    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I apologize for the inconvenience caused. We are glad to help.



    The issue might have been caused if the ‘Auto-hide’ task bar option got checked. So, I would suggest you to try the following steps to disable auto hide task bar.

    a. Right click on the Task bar.

    b. Click on Properties.

    c. Put a uncheck mark next to ‘Auto-hide’ the task bar.

    d. Click on Apply and OK.

    Also check the option “task bar location on the screen” need to select “bottom”.



    Hope this helps. Keep us posted with the updated status of the issue. We will be happy to assist you.



    Thanks and regards,

    Jenith
