Okay, I've watched a YouTube video that said that if u debloat your PC the system will run faster, and so I did a few debloats and now my search bar and the bottom left windows button is broken any help? Or do I gotta restart whole PC? And if this is the wrong area to post I'm sorry tell me where to post it.
