Yes. Same problem. If I click on the task list button the shell crashes.
Thomas1975 mentions AV - I don't have any besides defender on this machine.
Maybe some other app that connects to explorer.exe in a way that is no longer supported is the culprit.
I did have StartIsBack installed, and had some issues having uninstalled on 11, then rolling back to 10 and it breaking lots of things. Reinstalled SiB, uninstalled it which should in theory get me back to stock.
The only other app I have on startup that somehow might connect to explorer.exe is Paddy Xu's QuickLook.
Waiting on a job to complete then re-attempting an 11 update.

- TywnnvladAug 05, 2021Copper ContributorI installed Win 11 but the start menus wasnt working. I rolled back the changes and now windows 10 is completely broken.
Be careful rolling back the changes, now Im trying to reset my pc but I may have lost some files.
