    Taskbar icons gone + alt tab doesn't work.


    Hello Everyone,


    I've recently encountered a situation in which none of my taskbar icons are displayed, I can't click the windows icon or task view in the bottom left and

    Alt + Tab doesn't work either. Win + Tab used to work but now it doesn't. I attempted following this guide https://www.tenforums.com/general-support/139348-taskbar-will-not-work.html , though that didn't end up working. I attempted to include an image below though I can't seem to do that. Any help is appreciated.


    Kind Regards,

    Dash

    :)

    alt + tab not working

    Alt-Tabbing in & out of games does not always work. It can also crash games in some cases.

    alt + tab not working

    Alt+Tab only works if there is something in the background to switch to. If there is nothing to switch to (the game that has focus is the only thing running), the command isn't executed.
