Windows 11 taskbar issue
Hello, recently i've upgraded from win 10 to win 11 and everything is running smooth except for the UI for taskbar it's all the same as 10 and start menu along with search are not working so is there anyway to get the UI of windows 11 and make them work?

Mohamed_Gamal1535 i have a similar problem, my taskbar wont show up at all and i can'
t open more than one app/tab at time time. not even restarting my computer works
- This is the official temp fix:
Step 1: Use CTRL-ALT-DEL and choose to open Task Manager.
Step 2: Choose “More details” at the bottom of Task Manager to expand Task Manager.
Step 3: Go to “File” and choose “Run new task”.
Step 4: Type “cmd” in the “Open” field.
Step 5: Paste the following: reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\IrisService /f && shutdown -r -t 0
Step 6: Hit enter, and then your PC should reboot. After rebooting, everything should be back to normal.Pick1ehead BRO YOU'RE A LEGEND TYSM

Temporal solution:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell\Update\Packages" and created a DWORD by name "UndockingDisabled" with a value of 1. (The start menu of windows 10 will be available to do some basic stuff)
- Found a solution! Go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windowsinsiderpreviewiso?wa=wsignin1.0 on your PC and download the ISO for whatever W11 insider build you want. Mount the ISO and launch the setup.exe, then when it asks you click the option to keep everything (apps and files). It will reinstall Windows but keep all your apps and files, so it's basically just replacing system files. Then after it finishes your taskbar should be fixed!
- Version 22000.132 has the same issue for me.
Somebody posted a solution on the feedback hub. Check it out.

Too late for me though. I already deleted my account, installed Win 11 and added my account again to get the correct taskbar.
- It's showing your account does not have access to view this
- That just means you're not signed in.
- Also make sure your Start Menu is set to center and not left. Windows 11 currently has the option to have Start Menu in the center or left of Taskbar. Right click taskbar, click on Taskbar Settings, Taskbar, Taskbar Behaviors, Taskbar Alignment, and set it to Center if it's not already.
- That is not the problem. You can't interact with the start menu at all. It is some kind of user profile corruption as any new accounts get the correct Win 11 Taskbar and start menu.
I'm on DEV but Beta is currently is in the same version (.100). Some of the issues reported by Beta have already been reported by DEV users last week. But, this taskbar issue seems to be happening to a few people even on the Feedback Hub on the Beta side of updating to Windows 11 Build 22000.100. I haven't had the experience, but I know others are facing it. I would say report it to Microsoft Feedback to prevent in future builds or go back to Windows 10 through Settings, Windows Update, Advanced Options, Recovery, Go Back than if you want try going back into the Beta Channel and re-downloading .100 again or simply just wait into the next build of Windows 11 Beta.
