Hello Anmol,

Thank you for updating me with that information. I suggest you create a new post on the new Microsoft Store since this thread is for "Taskbar settings not working". This will help other users to easily find this thread with a similar problem.

Please try the following methods below.

**Press Windows key+I to open Settings

Select System > Troubleshooter

Click Other troubleshooters

Select Windows Store Apps and Run the troubleshooter.

**Reset the Microsoft Store cache

Press the Windows Logo Key + R to open the Run dialog box, type wsreset.exe, and then select OK.

Note:

A blank Command Prompt window will open, and after about ten seconds the window will close and Microsoft Store will open automatically.

**Check the Microsoft Store Install Service

Press the Windows Key + S and type in services.msc.

Find the Microsoft Store Install Service and double click, If the status is Running, right click it then select Restart

If Disabled, change it to Automatic, click Start and click OK.

**Please Run PowerShell as Administrator

Copy and paste the command below then press Enter

Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.WindowsStore* | Reset-AppxPackage

Restart your computer

Kindly let me know if this helps or if you have any further concerns.
