    Why isn't my taskbar functioning correclty.


    Hello, so as of currently i have been experiencing a problem with the taskbar, i am not able to open main things like the window icon, wifi, time, or even the weather. I can't search anything through the taskbar and whenever i try to go to the windows security nothing happens. I think the cause of this might potentially be a virus but i am uncertain, i also do not know how to fix this since as an act of desperation i had deleted all of my downloads, i have no clue what is causing this or how this came about. Another thing i want to mention is that before updating might computer it was working

    :)

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.

    Cortana isn´t working

    When I hit enter, it did something, but there´s still no Cortana, even after restart. So I tried it again, but now it says that it failed, because it´s already installed and it´s working in PC. So it should work, but Cortana still isn´t here.

    Why isn't my taskbar functioning correclty.

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    Managed to solve it... here´s how I did it just in case anyone else has the same problem...

    ->Settings

    ->Printers & scanners

    ->Add a printer or scanner

    ->The printer that I want isn´t listed

    ->Add a local printer or network printer with manual settings

    ->Use an existing port: USB001 (Virtual printer port for USB)

    ->Choose printer

    ->Use the driver that is currently installed

    ->Type printer name

    And done... =P
