Hi Louis Scamardella,
No taskbar icons on windows 11 - Microsoft Tech Community
Referencing below info from this user who had same issue ^^
1: Ctrl-Shift-Delete, open task manager.
2: Press run new task, type wt, choose run as administrator.
3 : If it is default to PowerShell, if it is on Cmd Prompt, choose the down arrow in menu bar to choose powershell admin.
4 : Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"
5: Also doing Sfc/scannow is what worked for the user.
6: Restart Computer and restarting explorer.exe in task manager
7: If you have similar issue you can open recovery tool from Win+r menu and type SystemPropertiesProtection. If you need it, try this step listed as well.
Kindly let us know if you fix it by using the above steps. I don't know if the Bing Wallpaper app has anything to do with this, Ctr- R, type control. Uninstall Bing wallpaper.
Thanks,
Shawn
