  2. Taskbar not working properly on Windows 10

    Hi EdJane,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand your query related to Toolbar on Windows not working properly, and I certainly appreciate your efforts in trying to resolve the issue by performing certain troubleshooting steps.



    For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below.



    1. Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently?
    2. Are you aware of any changes made to the PC prior to which you weren’t facing this issue?
    3. When you say, “Toolbar”, are you referring to the taskbar on Windows 10?


    Refer the article Which version of Windows operating system am I running?



    Assuming that you are referring to Taskbar on Windows 10, I would suggest you to try creating a new user account, as you have already tried using the PowerShell commands. Refer the article

    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10
    and see if the Taskbar is working fine.



    Let us know how it goes.



    Regards,

    my taskbar search is working sporadically

    My taskbar search bar is working some of the time. For example, if I type in "TaskMgr", it will list taskmgr, and when I click on it, it opens my Task Manager, as expected.

    But if I type in a file name or an app, like WinMerge, it will list them properly in the Search list, but if I click on them, either nothing happens or it takes me to the root window of File Explorer, instead of to the file or the app.

    I ran through all the steps on this page, to no avail: How to fix search problems in Windows 10 | Windows Central

    Any ideas?
