Widgets don't work
I've just installed Windows 11 and it's so annoying. Messenger and WhatsApp apps do not work (that's a topic for another thread) and widgets work only if I disable the display driver and then turn it...
For the time being, I want to focus just on fixing widgets. Unfortunately neither of your solutions worked. When I tried the latter, i.e. just reinstall widgets, it seemed to run smoothly, but it didn't do anything. When I tried the former, i.e. resetting all apps, it generated a long error log (I can send it or post it if you want) and still didn't help.
This *should* work on every consumer-grade SKU for Windows 10 / 11 (although the services need to be cold started like this.) You would have to restart your PC to get full functionality (with services) after executing both Powershell scripts (basically have to copy-paste them.)
