Since the last update my Win 11 has completely disabled my taskbar and all icons in it along with the Windows button/icon. So I have no access to even open my settings for updates. Also most like it removed privileges.

    Hi Andrews,

    I'm Paul and I'm here to help you with your concern.

    Please try the following solutions.

    1. Use System File Checker to check and fix corrupted system files that may be the cause of the issue. Please refer to the link.

    • To open Command prompt as admin, open Task Manager(press ctrl+shift+esc) > click File > Run new task > type: cmd.exe > select "Create this task with administrative privileges".
    1. Run the PowerShell command.

    >> To open Windows PowerShell (Admin) , open Task Manager(press ctrl+shift+esc) > click File > Run new task > type: powershell.exe > select "Create this task with administrative privileges".

    >> type the following then hit Enter:

    Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    >> close Powershell and restart the PC.

    I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted.
