Just keep in mind that you will have to redo it in 7 days, Start then stop again unless u get lucky and it asks to restart/shutdown with update. If it does, dont do the shutdown with update
- JordanPascuaSep 03, 2021Copper Contributorpretty sure as a serious bug as this is, that they hopefully found a fix by then. they gave an update on twitter that they're investigating the issue.
- RyanTech_LLCSep 03, 2021Brass ContributorThey updated the insider build pages on the website as well. Hopefully now that many more people are having this problem, they will actually get a quick patch out.
- JordanPascuaSep 03, 2021Copper ContributorOk there's a slight fix to this. Ctrl Alt Del, Open a new task type Control then go to Time and Date change the date to one month ahead. Taskbar should be back. Then I guess go to settings uninstall the update.
- theDroSep 03, 2021Copper ContributorJust wanted to chime in that I'm having the same issue too. Will try solutions mentioned above and will report back if something other than restore or reinstall works
- Xvenom82Sep 03, 2021Brass ContributorThats good. At least they are on it. Hope they shut down the recent update so no one else updates it
- RyanTech_LLCSep 03, 2021Brass ContributorThis is interesting.... I went back to the lockscreen (Win + L) then switched users to another user I already had loaded on. I got the quick "Setting up your desktop" experience and everything actually works perfect just on that user. So the main user gets screwed for some reason. So instead of wiping Windows as a last resort, one could jump into recovery mode, open cmd, create a new user, then log in as the user to do whatever (System restore, reset, go back to Win 10, roll back updates, etc.)
- ThijsL202Sep 03, 2021Brass ContributorAs I expected.
I tried creating a new user but couldn't be done anymore.
This Is why I always had a repair user account.- Pick1eheadSep 03, 2021Copper ContributorYou couldn't create a user account from the F11 (At startup) recovery environment?
- ThijsL202Sep 03, 2021Brass ContributorThanks.
