Windows 10: Unresponsive Taskbar + Frozen/Laggy Applications

Hi all, I would be so grateful for any assistance with this issue. I have been experiencing an issue where my taskbar is unresponsive.

Computer Acting strange, Taskbar unresponsive at times, laggy applications, and more.

So I recently bought a tower for Christmas, and after logging on yesterday I noticed somw annoying things. Taskbar is almost always unresponsive, every once in a while it will work, sometimes freeing up when I press the window key, and sometimes when I move
my mouse across the taskbar while it is unresponsive, it will pick up a pinned application and act like I'm dragging it until I click. Next is simple, but most easy programs like chrome have a laggy startup and is sometimes unresponsive. Lastly, I was having
a problem where my mouse would become like this d-pad sorta thing, and wherever I moved my mouse from the point that it became thst D-pad, it scrolls in that direction, and it won't stop until I right click. I tried the basic stuff like restarting and running
a cleaner, I don't know how to approach this problem anymore.

Windows 10 Taskbar Unresponsive.

Dear Amma,

Sorry for the trouble, here are few steps that I would suggest:

• Press the Windows + X
• Open the Command Prompt (Admin)
• Now type the command as " Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
• Push Enter
• Restart the system.
• Now see if the issue persists
• If it persists the only option is to create a new user admin account.

Do let me know if it helped and please mark the answer as helpful if it helped.
