My taskbar has disappeared, literally overnight. I've tried all kinds of 'solutions' to get it back and nothing...I'm at my wits end!

Thank you for the information!

Please try the below steps and check if it is working

Step 1: Restart File Explorer

=> You can press Ctrl + Shift + Esc at the same time to open Task Manager, and click the Process tab.

=> Find Windows Explorer from the list, and right-click it to choose Restart to restart Explorer.exe.

Step 2: Change the screen

You can press the Windows + P key on the keyboard at the same time to open Windows Project settings, and make sure you only select the PC Screen Only option.

Step 3: Try running the System File Checker to resolve this issue. This will scan your system for corrupt files and attempt to repair them. Here's how to do it:

=> Press Win + S to open the search box.

=> Then type "PowerShell" and select Run as administrator from the right pane.

=> If UAC appears on the computer screen, click Yes to continue.

=> In the Command Prompt window, Input this Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool command and press Enter:

DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

=> When the first Scan is done, type this command in the Prompt’s window and press Enter:

sfc /scannow

The scan may take a while to complete, but once it's done, restart your computer and see if the issue persists.

There were no recent changes. We've tried just about any suggestions online ..checked windows explorer, checked task mng....

It was there when I went to bed and disappeared overnight.

We've done/ tried all those things...have seen those in other threads.

Still nothing.
