Logged onto my laptop today to find the taskbar and start button completely unresponsive. I can’t use them to open any applications or to type, and there is a loading symbol where my mouse tracker should be when I hover over them. I tried to use windows + I and windows + R to open Settings and Run respectively but they won’t open either. I’ve also attempted to open Settings through cmd without luck. I’ve also already tried opening Task Manager and restarting Windows Explorer to no avail. Any tips? Thanks!
