Windows 10: Windows 10 Notifications icon not working after update on Laptop

My icon will show the number of icons on my Laptop. When I click on it, the number of icons disappears, and the notifications

will not open. The action center will not open. I cannot see the part where it shows airplane mode, night light,

network, etc. I have searched this online. Seems this was a problem in 2011 also during the most disastrous Microsoft update

ever. It wiped out the Accounting program on my Laptop at work, made it unable to have access to the Laptop itself, the update got

hung up around 38% or something like that. We let it sit for 2 days. The update never completed.


Please help me and I promise I won't bother you again since I will never do another Windows update. The first one just about ruined a prosperous company........Thank you

:)

Suggestion to finally have proper separate Options window like most (all?) Windows programs do.
