All those icons in the bottom right of the taskbar do not work, no response despite left clicks on those icons. These include the volume, network, clock and notifications icons. The Action Center cannot be called out as well. However, those hidden icons under the "Up Arrow" work properly.

My desktop is running on Windows 10 Home version 21H2, the latest Windows update was just run yesterday.

The followings have been tried with no improvement:

a) System File Checker - sfc /scannow

b) DISM tool - CheckHealth, ScanHealth & Restorehealth

c) Powershell command

Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

d) Renaming of UsrClass.dat file

e) Restart Windows Explorer

Anything else I can do to solve the problems?

    The Intel INF installation completed, don't know where to find any changes.

    Just note that the Intel Management Engine Interface #1 driver in Device Manager is newer than the Intel Management Engine Firmware found in motherboard download page. So, I skip it, right?

    Tried all methods, still no change for audio driver.

    Should I proceed with updating of other drivers?

    Try opening the device in Dev Manager, from Driver tab choose Update driver, then Automatically to see if it picks it up from downloads. If not choose Update Driver > Browse > Let Me Pick to see if it's queued there. If not Update Driver > Browse to the download location where it's Unzipped.
