    Hi All,

    I bought my Laptop with Windows 11 pre-Installed on it.

    Yesterday I did windows update on my laptop and since then All the Apps/Icons on my taskbar disappeared.

    I tried uninstalling updates but I am still not able to see my taskbar app icons.

    Is there anything that can be done to resolve this?

    Microsoft Team,

    After I installed the update to Windows 11, I noticed that it had deleted my Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

    Later when I uninstalled Windows 11 and went back to 10, My Word, Excel, and PowerPoint returned.

    Do you know why the update happened to remove my apps?
