This is becasue it is not the taks bar that is broken, it is explorer.
And i laph at what microsoft said to do, i can think of ways of whcih
to try and repair explorer, but it is realy complicated and realy i
would actualy have to be at the computer that is broken to make sure
all went well. but here is a "basic" out line of what i personaly
would do. I would use a proccess manger (not task manger, a much
better proces manager) use this to see what moduals explorere has
loaded and is using, if that failed i would do the same on a computer
of similare configuration, list all the moduls (litraly on a sheet of
paper) find the moduls on a computer where explorer works, copy them
to Recovary Console compatible USB flash memory, launch recovary
console, and replace all moduls using the list i made and files i had
gathered. It is a very long shot, but thats the only thing i can come
up with. Of course it can go deeper then that, if that failed what i
would then do is look at the parent proces for explorer and do exacly
the same, and keep going from parent to parent untill i reachtthe very
top, if it was not working then, it would definitly mean reinstall of
windows. please note i said "basic" at the start
EDIT: Any modules which explorer has loded that are obviusly not
suposed to be there i would delete.
