Hi,

This isn't a big problem and I'm not even sure if it's a Start 11 or Windows 11 issue but occasionally I get a remnant shadow exactly in the location where the pop-up for the search box would display if hovering over the taskbar icon. It only is a problem if I don't notice it immediately and another program uses that same spot for data entry as the mouse shows busy. I have attached an image of the shadow and location above the taskbar. Note that it is centered over the search icon. The only way to remove it is to reboot or restart Windows Explorer with the task manager.
