Hi Expert. I have deployed a script on Windows 11 devices a few months ago, and recently i observed there have been issues with aggressive behavior on pinned taskbar items. i am wondering if this could be due to the script or if there might be another problem, such as a group policy issue. Please suggest me if there is possibility to cause this issue due to this script or let me know how to troubleshoot.  

  #turn off Chat REG ADD "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /f /v TaskbarMn /t REG_DWORD /d 0 #turn off Widgets REG ADD "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /f /v TaskbarDa /t REG_DWORD /d 0 #change Search : Icon only REG ADD "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search" /f /v SearchboxTaskbarMode /t REG_DWORD /d 1 #change Taskbar Alignment: Left REG ADD "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /f /v TaskbarAl /t REG_DWORD /d 0 This Script changes value of TaskbarMn,TaskbarDa,SearchboxTaskbarMode , TaskbarAl. I believe taskbar pinned items is stored in the Windows Registry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Taskband so after changes of these registry value TaskbarMn,TaskbarDa,SearchboxTaskbarMode , TaskbarAl,  

  Will this script impact "taskband" or pinned items to taskbar behavior (Aggressive behavior). also If possible, Can you please share article for this. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Taskband

    How about use Start Menu xml in Settings Catalog? Use replace and just pin icons you want.
