    I've done about everything i feel i possibly can, but settings won't open at all. So far this is the only app that I have noticed this happening to. I've scanned for anything wrong, I've done a system restore, I've restarted but nothing is working.I don't know what to do and everything seems fine except for the fact that nothing is showing up.

    Windows 11 - Taskbar not appearing, Settings not opening

    How do you suggest the settings to be opened? I also am unable to access my settings since upgrading to 11.

    System Icons on taskbar

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

    Are you referring to the clock system icon on the taskbar?

    If so, I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below:


    • Click on the search bar on the taskbar.

    • Type system icons.

    • Under Turn System Icons ON or OFF, turn On the Clock and check with the issue.

    Hope it helps.
