Restart Windows Explorer. 

Restarting Windows Explorer is often the quickest way to fix issues with the Taskbar on Windows 10. Here's how to do it: 

  • Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the Task Manager. 

  • Look at the list of active programs for Windows Explorer. 

  • Right-click on it and select Restart. 

This action updates the Taskbar and other parts of the Windows interface, which can help fix minor issues. 

How To Change Windows Updates: Update Or Restore An Earlier Version. 

Sometimes, a recent update can cause issues with the Taskbar. To check for and manage updates: 

To update Windows: 

  1. Press the Windows key and the I key together to open Settings. 

  2. Go to Update & Security and click on Windows Update. 

  3. Click "Check for updates" and install any available updates. 

If the problem began after an update, you should go back and remove it. Go to Update & Security, then click on View update history, and select Uninstall updates. Identify the problematic update and choose it. 

  • Use the System File Checker (SFC) and the DISM tools. 

  • If system files are damaged, the Taskbar may not work correctly. Windows has tools that can automatically find and fix these files. 

  • To open the Command Prompt as an administrator, search for "cmd" and select "Run as administrator." 

  • Type "sfc /scannow" and press Enter. 

Check For Problems With Other Software. 

Some outside apps can interfere with the Taskbar. To identify conflicts: 

  • To start your computer in Safe Mode: 

  • Press the Windows key and the R key together, type "msconfig," and then hit Enter. 

  • Open the Boot tab, choose Safe Boot, and then click OK. Restart your computer. 

  • If the Taskbar works in Safe Mode, uninstall any new software that might be causing the issue. 

Create A New User Account 

A corrupted user profile could also cause your Windows 10 taskbar not to work. To create a new user account: 

  • Press Win + I to open Settings. Then, click on Accounts and select Family & Other Users. 

  • Add another user to this computer and follow the steps to create a new account. 

  • Log in to your new account and check if the Taskbar is working correctly. 

  • Try doing a System Restore or Reset. 

If nothing else helps, you can use System Restore to return your computer to an earlier time. 

These solutions fix common problems with the Windows 10 taskbar not working, from restarting Windows Explorer to using advanced tools like SFC and PowerShell. If you've tried everything and the problem is still there, consider getting professional help to figure out what could be wrong. 

Keep this guide handy, and let your Taskbar assist you again!
