Right click to Close on Taskbar for Task Manager does not work, must X out, you have same issue

Run Task Manager, try to right click in Win 11 and select close, see if it closes or does nothing.
Thank you very much
Peter

Mine closes fine from my Laptop's Taskbar.

What you could do is restart Windows Explorer from within Task Manager, then, when the Taskbar reappears, try closing Task Manager again. See if that makes a difference.

To restart Windows Explorer, look in the Process Tab of Task Manager, type Explorer in the Search box, Right-Mouse click it, then select Restart.

Thank you all for testing this. I now know it is a small issue because I am using the program Start11 which provides me the look and feel of Windows 7 and such in the start menu.

Thank you.
