    Taskbar - Search Icon does not work, Start Menu missing, Right click does not work, no "Taskbar and Start Menu" in control panel

    Hi,

    Here are the possible causes why Taskbar and Start menu don't work:

    • Corrupted user profile
    • Corrupted or missing system files

    Since running SFC didn't resolve the issue, we suggest creating a new user account
    to recreate your Taskbar and Start menu.

    We would appreciate an update about how it went.

    Start Menu and Taskbar customization

    Hi everyone,

    Does anyone have recommendations on how to customize the start menu and taskbar for a deployment image? I've tried customizing the start menu and taskbar, then exporting the configuration into a XML, but the start menu appears in two columns when I want it half way along with the taskbar settings not sticking.

    Any suggestions will be great!
