Various users are complaining about bugs with the KB5003214 patch if the News and Interests feature is active

A few days ago we saw how Windows 10 received the KB5003214 patch. An update available for Windows 10 in versions 21H1, 20H2 and 2004 that came to solve different problems but at the same time it seems that is causing different failures related to the taskbar

And it is that users who are seeing how the KB5003214 patch is causing the taskbar to disorder the icons, are already appearing on the network and in opinion forums, appear or causing them to appear superimposed on each other.

A messy taskbar

"

After installing the patch KB5003214, which should be remembered, it is an optional patch, some users complain that the icons that appear on the taskbar appear messy and even some appear overlaid with other icons. Others for their part, affirm that the icons within the system tray that remain blank, especially if the function News and interests>"

"

But these are not the only complaints, since other people affirm that the notification center and the network icon have stopped working. For their part, others affected affirm that the icons move randomly and appear and disappear when the News and interests feed is active."

"

It seems that all the problems are related to the News and interests feed, an addition that began to appear from the very beginning give trouble and seem to still be around."

"

In addition, others affected are seeing how the Search Box has disappeared from the taskbar for some users, while some users have reported display scaling issues."

To correct these bugs, if you have been affected, for now there is no other remedy than to uninstall patch KB5003214and the cumulative update that is causing problems.

"

Another not-so-radical solution is to deactivate the News and Interests function>by selecting Deactivate."
