Windows 10: Shift + Right Click on Taskbar Icon Freezes Windows Explorer. Cannot right click apps in...

Been having an issue on Windows 11, where when I hold shift and right click on an icon in the taskbar, it will freeze my entire taskbar and I cannot use the start menu. I have to restart windows explorer for it to work again. Once I do Shift + right click again, it happens again. Also, when I search an app in the start menu, I am unable to right click it and get options such as "run as administrator" or "open file location". There is also no options to the right of it. What fixes can I do? I have tried running sfc/scannow and DISM.

Windows 11 bug when press Shift and right click on a taskbar icon.

I'm trying to run a windows terminal as an administrator using the Taskbat icon. To do this, I click Shift and right click on the icon in the taskbar. Explorer freezes and restarts. And so several times after everything works ok. Often this happens after a new reboot of the system.

Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
What do you think?
