Problem:
I am using Windows 11 22H2. The icons in the Taskbar are overlapping. How to fix?
Resolution:
- To fix overlapping icons, turn on the ‘Align icons to grid’ settings. Right-click on your desktop and select View > Align icons to grid.
- Change Display Resolution also helps.
- Right click anywhere on the desktop and select Display Settings
Display Settings windows will pop-up, locate scale and layout
Change the value under scale and layout and check if the icons are still overlapping icons on your taskbar.
- Press
Ctrl + Shift + Esc
to open the Task Manager. - Under the “Processes” tab, find “Windows Explorer,” right-click on it, and select “Restart.”
- If the icon on the taskbar is still not working, kindly follow the steps below:
Open the Windows PowerShell as administrator.
Type the command below and press enter after the command.
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}
Close the Windows PowerShell and restart the computer.
Check if the same issue appears.
- You may also create a new user account if this account is corrupted.
