Taskbar messed up sometimes after resuming desktop from sleep. Icons goes to the right on the taskbar and some of them doesn't show. If I click one of the icons it's not the right shortcut either. Workaround: restart explorer. No pending updates except KB2267602.

Hi 🙏

Something to try;

You can run the SFC /scannow command from any console, including the command prompt, PowerShell, or Windows Terminal. Open one of these as Admin and type or past that command and press enter, then wait for it to finish.

Then, if it reports problems, run the following command:

DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Type (or copy and paste) the following command:

Code: 
SFC /scannow

Were there any errors?


When completed, type (or copy and paste) the following command:

Code: 
DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired them.

Shouldn't I check health before?
DISM /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
No component store corruption detected.
The operation completed successfully.

I think I ran sfc a while ago as well and then it also found errors and repaired them.

Yes possibly, but I don’t.

To be honest, I run the batch script in this post, if needed or not.

Windows 10 / 11 post WU installation cleanup script

Hey, folks, Thanks to a lot of wonderful folks here, we've made mention in a previous Insider topic about cleanup steps that can be run after Windows Update performs a major version install. Though these have been mentioned before by many, many people, it was this post by @IanMosley that...

DISM /online /cleanup-image /checkhealth
Click to expand...
The Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth command uses Windows Update to see if the system files are healthy, repairable, or non-repairable. Repair a Windows Image
What the article doesn't mention it that the Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth command also will report whether it detected corruptions so if it turns out that it did, it will report whether it was able to successfully repair them. The difference is that, if you're interested in trying to investigate what's caused the corruptions, then you can't always do these kinds of investigations after the corruptions have already been repaired. But then, in a lot of cases you don't really need to investigate, as you can just blame Windows instead. Windows is, and always has been, a funny OS above anything else so, the day when funny OS stops being funny, prepare for cataclysmic event.

Usually, if the sfc /scannow command didn't detect any corruptions, it means that there aren't any, but sometimes it can happen that there still are, in which case Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth should do the trick. Only if problems like this persist after, that's when other troubleshooting methods such as, e.g., trying to repair Windows via an in-place upgrade will typically be recommended next. Some also recommend to just skip the sfc /scannow simply for the fact that it doesn't always find the corruptions if present. Even so, sfc /scannow takes much less time to finish compared to Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth so, more often than not, sfc /scannow helps to save valuable time still nevertheless, i.e. due to the simple fact that it usually is already sufficient to remedy the problem.

I had faulty memory modules, maybe it had to do with that. I did a OS reinstallation anyway. I havn't got any more problem with this.
