Recurring fails with both Taskbar and True Launch Bar - quattrocchi - 08-28-2022
OS Name Windows 10 Pro
Version 10.0.19044 Build 19044
System Model ZenBook UX434FLC
System Type x64-based PC
True Launch Bar v7.5 (64 bit)
Recurring fails with both Taskbar and True Launch Bar.
Several times a day - as I’m working it happens virtually about every 5- 10 min - the pointer has no effect when I try to access the taskbar apps and TLB menus.
While taskbar/TLB is frozen, some actions on the desktop still continue: such as quitting an app window to taskbar.
But hover over TLB icons on the taskbar has no effect...
I've noticed a way that generates this condition.
For example, clicking once on taskbar icons has no effect.
Moving the pointer CHANGES IT to a dark hourglass.
It stays as a still hourglass as I move it along just the taskbar, but sometimes also on the desktop.
Clicking on taskbar icons a second or third time the taskbar and desktop quits and restarts as normal.
Normal, except for a curious TLB action: once a menu is displayed, and the pointer moves outside it onto say the desktop, the menu does not close. Until I click outside.
All these restarts are driving me mad.

As no-one has no idea what might be causing this taskbar quit and restart,
I don't know if it's an issue with Windows taskbar, or with True Launch Bar.
Here's something which might be a clue.
Right-click on a space in the taskbar => Toolbars
shows
Address
Links
True Launch Bar ...
Desktop
(ticked) True Launch Bar
----------------------------
That unticked'True Launch Bar ...' leads to
C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
Is this normal?

I have now reinstalled Windows 10 Pro, and all the offered updates.
Result:
No change.
The taskbar, with TLB of course, stops functioning and with a few extra clicks will close and restart.
Takes about 7-9 seconds each time I go to access files or apps.
After roughly 15sec the taskbar is broken again. It's not obvious - no indication the functions have gone - but it's a stupid fault and most of my computing time is taken up clicking and waiting on the taskbar to operate.
