We all know the importance of Start Menu and Taskbar and how they help us navigate the computer. However, sometimes unexpected issues cause Windows 10 to freeze or even crash. The Start menu and taskbar do not work as expected, leaving users frustrated. This system error blocks access to applications and files stored on the computer. It freezes the system and, in extreme cases, puts the computer in a boot loop.

Making your taskbar display your favorite apps is a great way to quickly access them, but sometimes your icons disappear from the taskbar without any warning. While this isn't a major problem and won't stop you from using your PC, it's still a huge inconvenience and you'll probably want your colorful icons back.
