    • Right-click on the Start menu, then choose Control
      Panel.

    If your task bar icons are smaller than the usual, you may perform the following steps on how to restore the size of such icons to its normal:

    • Click Start, then select Settings.
    • Go to the Taskbar tab.
    • Disable the Use small task bar buttons option.

    task bar not responding

    Hi,

    There are several possible reasons why the task bar is not working as expected. One of them may be caused by a corrupted user profile. In your case, we'd like to ask for additional information to help us determine the appropriate steps to solve the issue.
    Please answer the following:

    • Have you made any recent changes or installed updates before the task bar stopped responding?
    • Was the task bar working after you have created the user profile?
    • Have you checked if the issue also exists with the other user profiles?
    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    For initial troubleshooting, you can follow the steps in this article:
    Troubleshoot problems opening the Start menu or Cortana
    .

    We hope to hear from you soon.
