Fixing corrupted taskbar Windows 11

Hello,
Sometimes during the Windows upgrades the taskbar and Windows Explorer are corrupted and not functional.
the solution for this issue is to take ownership of the DLL as how owner of the taskbar.
you can run the command with Powershell(run it as administrator):
here are the commands:
takeown /f "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14.0.32530.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\vcruntime140_app.dll"
icacls "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14.0.32530.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\vcruntime140_app.dll" /inheritance:e
icacls "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.VCLibs.140.00_14.0.32530.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\vcruntime140_app.dll" /setowner "NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM"
Stop-Process -Name explorer -Force
Start-Process explorer

hi @ido Shmuel, can I have your contact details to discuss this issue in detail. we had a similar issue 2-3 months ago and we understand the issue was caused by the permission of the .dll file getting changed. and we resolved the issue. but again after a week, it started for some of the same users. we opened a case with MS but still they are struggling to find the root cause.
