Hey everyone. I recently upgraded to Windows 11 from Windows 10 and have been having an issue where when I try to open up the settings app, or photos app, or movies app, or anything like that, the window will pop up but nothing is displayed and my taskbar will freeze.
in order to get the taskbar working again, i need to open a CMD & then the taskmgr to end the explorer.exe process and then start a new explorer.exe process.
After my initial upgrade, i found a post indicating that this can be fixed by running the following in a CMD.
on the first public build, that worked great. i could restart my computer and open any of the apps that were giving me issues, however since installing the first public update, i'm running into the freezing up issue again and deleting the registry key does not fix the issue anymore.
If i run the cmd above, i can briefly access these apps when the PC starts up but after about 1 min, if i try to open those apps, the freezing comes back.
Has anyone run into this issue? Any suggestions on how to fix it permanently?
