On the positive side though, following all that backlash, Microsoft acknowledged Windows has issues, and as if on cue, the company in a new support article has admitted that there are problems on almost every major Windows 11 core feature. The issues are related to XAML and this impacts all the Shell components like the Start Menu, Taskbar, Explorer, and Windows Settings.

  • Explorer.exe crash
  • shelhost.exe crash
  • StartMenuExperienceHost issues
  • System Settings silently fails to launch
  • Application crashes when initializing the XAML views
  • Explorer running but no taskbar window.
  • other XAML island views fail to initialize.
  • ImmersiveShell problems
