Labels overlapping in taskbar

Question

Why the labels are on top of each other as in the screenshot? This happens once or twice per week.

Answer 1

Hi Ahmed,

It's my pleasure to assist you. I'm glad that it worked. Thank you for updating me. Appreciated.

This issue usually occurs due to one of the following reasons:

The align icons to grid is disabled.

Display Resolution issue

3rd party app conflict

Pending Windows update

In case the issue happened again, it would be best to submit a ticket to Windows Developers so they could check this as well.

Send feedback to Microsoft with the Feedback Hub app

Thank you so much,

Christine

I tried restarting the explorer process and it worked, and it usually works. My question is why is this a normal behavior that I experience occasionally?
