Hello Windows Insiders!
Build23516 was released to the Dev Channel this week. in our reviews of incoming feedback, a bug has been logged that we wanted to share insights on. See below for details.
Who: Windows Insiders on Dev Channel Build 23516
What: Taskbar may be “missing” on boot after installing this build
Why: (Investigation is underway)
Additional information:
As we have attempted to reproduce this issue, it has proven to be inconsistent. Many users have not hit this issue, while others have it on some device reboots, but not others.
Workarounds:
There are three possible workarounds possible for this scenario, each detailed below.
- If your taskbar is missing, allow the computer to sit idle for 5-6 minutes. Users have reported hearing an audible ding notification after which time the Taskbar reappears.
- Reboot the device. This has not proven to be a fully reliable workaround, but it has been noted as successful from some users.
- Lastly, you may choose to roll back from this build to the prior build. This bug was not present in the prior Dev Channel build (23511). To roll back your device if the task bar is missing, please follow these steps:
- Click the lock screen to display the login page.
- Select the on-screen Power Button in the lower-right corner.
- Hold the Shift key and **** select Restart.
- (The device will reboot and enter the Windows Recovery Environment)
- On the "Choose an option" screen, select Troubleshoot
- Select Advanced options
- Select Uninstall updates
- Select Uninstall latest feature update
- If your device has BitLocker enabled, you will be prompted for the recovery key. Input the key and click Continue.
- On the next screen select Uninstall feature update
- The uninstall process will now begin.
We appreciate your patience as we investigate this issue. Please share any additional insights you may have either in the Feedback Hub or here in this thread.
Thank you as always,
- The Windows Insider Team

2023-08-10T19:29:26+00:00 I finally got the problem with 23516 after restoring an Image backup. Same behavior that I saw already with previous Dev Builds.
Taskbar missing. 🤐
To get it back I just did what ChrisLeipold suggested in the post above, Ctrl + Alt + Del and sighed out, when I signed back in the taskbar was there again. 😉
After signing back in the taskbar was there again.
On following reboot, it was back to normal. 👍

2023-08-10T17:47:19+00:00 I am experiencing this bug too. My workaround is to CTRL+ALT+DEL and logout from the current session. After re-login its fixed most of the time. Sometimes I have to do it twice to get it working.

2023-08-10T17:45:55+00:00 I'm having this issue too.
But, strange, only on one of two local accounts :) My wifes' account is ok, taskbar shows immediately at start.
My account takes significantly longer to load (loading profile/account is longer than booting from zero to login screen) and taskbar does not show up until 2 minutes or so.
But when I first log in to wifes' account, then log out and log in to my account everything is in good working order.
