    Start Menu, Taskbar, and Task Manager not working on boot


    Hi,


    I'm having an issue with the start menu, task bar, and task manager.

    I don't know what is the issue, usually at the start up the task bar icon will show up but now it does not even show up.

    Even worse every time I move my cursor to the taskbar the cursor changes into like loading state.


    Can you please give me some advice what to do?


    Thanks

    :)

    Hi Liam,

    One of the possible reasons why Start Menu, Taskbar, and Task Manager is not showing is due to software conflicts. To resolve your issue, we recommend that you perform a clean boot. This will help eliminate
    software conflicts that may have occurred when you updated Windows. To perform a clean boot, follow the steps on this

    Let us know how that turned out for you.

    Task Manager on start-up and minimized to tray

    Confirmed on W10 2004 what you said - Task Manager starts minimized with an icon in the taskbar. If I click on the Task Manager taskbar icon, then minimize the Task Manager window, the taskbar icon goes away and Task Manager remains in the tray.

    Start Menu, Taskbar, and Task Manager not working

    Hi,

    I'm having an issue with the start menu, task bar, and task manager.

    I don't know what is the issue, usually at the start up the task bar icon will show up but now it does not even show up.

    Even worse every time I move my cursor to the taskbar the cursor changes into like loading state.

    Everything works fine such as opening my computer, playing video, opening chrome via the program files.

    But it does not show up in the taskbar.

    Every time I shutdown or restart it takes a long time to execute it and I tend to forced shutdown it.

    Can you please give me some advice what to do?

    Thanks
