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?

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Performance and system failures

    Instead of installing the Intel SATA Preinstall driver file got from motherboard download page, I think of updating the Standard SATA AHCI Controller driver, from Microsoft, seen in Device Manager IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers category.

    In searching in the web, someone suggests to download the latest Intel Standard SATA AHCI Controller driver from the following website: https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=sata%20ahci%20controller

    Which one should I download? The first one on the list?

    Intel Corporation - HDC - 18.37.1.1003 --- Windows - Client, version 21H2 and later, Servicing Drivers

    My CPU is Intel i3 and OS is Windows 10 Home 64 bit
