Windows 11 Taskbar becomes unclickable randomly??????

Hey folks!! lately my Windows 11 taskbar will just freeze up out of nowhere. I can see it, but clicking on the Start button, notifications, or any of the icons does nothing. The only thing that fixes it temporarily is restarting Windows Explorer from the Task Manager, but it's a hassle to keep doing that. Is this a known bug with a recent update, and is there a permanent fix on the way?
