Windows 11 multi monitor taskbar not working properly
The Windows 11 multi monitor taskbar is not working properly. The taskbar is visible on the secondary monitors but seems to have little functionality or is "broken". Tested this on multiple systems. ...
This is a "known" issue with the release. It's noted on the release notes.

I am using window 11 build 22000.348 with two displays, using second display for extended screen. When i choose to show taskbar on multiple screen, taskbar showing on primary screen, but on second screen, a section appears in bottom but no icons are showing. To overcome this issue I press 🪟 (winkey) + P (For opening Project Selection) and selecting second screen only option and then switching back to Extended option. This solved the issue of Icons not rendering properly on second screen.
You have to redo it every time you shutdown or reboot though
I would have thought we would have an actual resolution by now as we reported these problems
while still in beta
- I am likely to roll back to Windows 10 unless it's fixed PDQ. Although no doubt it'll now be screwed on there too now. No fix has worked and no comms from Microsoft as far as I can tell in this thread.
