Solved Windows 11 Flickering taskbar issue


You need to execute Dism command from normal mode as it uses Windows Update service which does not work at Safe Mode not sure.

Also from WinRE use Startup Repair and System Restore tools.

DISM command I have tried (as said in my question) and it looks like it needs cmd with admin rights.
I have used start up repair and no luck
System Restore has no restore point of windows to restore it back.

I had recently upgraded windows 11 to windows 11 22h2 and it had went for Windows Update and then suddenly i start getting this message.

From WinRE uninstall update that was installed if you think update cause the problem.

If a recently installed a update that has rendered your Windows 10 or Windows 11 computer unbootable, you can use the Windows Recovery Environment Options to uninstall the newly installed update.

As you will have a GUI option in WinRE to uninstall updates use that option, if that does not work you can try command line option.

When you execute Dism command that will repair damage component store files which are use by SFC command to repair damage Windows system files.

You should have latest version of the Windows 11 bootable drive.

I do have Start is back installed on my machine. can that cause the issue?? But then the start menu and taskbar should be visible when booting in safe mode. In fact once i saw the start menu in safe mode and when I went to settings and update there i couldn't see the list of updates... in fact it is pretty much blank in the update screen.
