  1. Weird white "padding" on windows search box after an update


    I recently installed the update KB5003214 on my PC and now the windows search box has this weird paddingnot sure what to call it around it whenever I boot my PC up. When I hover over the box or click on it or Start, it disappears and the box returns to normal.From my understanding the update is probably what caused it, so I tried uninstalling it via powershell but got an error saying that this update is required for the PC to run and cannot be uninstalled I don't remember the exact error message but it was something like this.So what do I do now?Here is the update:
