    Hi Arvy G,

    Without knowing what steps you originally took and those steps now, the best option may be to perform an in-place repair with the Windows 11 ISO, hopefully that will fix your taskbar.

    Please follow the steps, this is then just an update and your files and applications will remain untouched.

    Click this link:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    to download the Windows 11 ISO

    When the ISO file completes downloading

    Disconnect from the Internet

    Disconnect all external devices with the exception of a mouse or keyboard.

    Temporarily disable any 3rd party Anti-virus you may have installed

    Then, in Windows File Explorer, double click the ISO and then run Setup.exe and select the upgrade option.

    Hi Arvy G,

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Did you previously use a registry edit or 3rd party utility to make the Taskbar smaller?

    If you did, they reprogrammed the taskbar in the latest version of Widows 11 and those will not work after the Moment 2 update.

    Hey there, Dave, so now there is a worse problem. I followed a friendly tutorial on how to change back the taskbar and now it's completely broken, I think it is back to windows 10 style and I can't use it at all.
    And the windows button doesn't work

    If I try to restore the whole pc it just gets stuck on the registry.
