My Windows Clock freezes often and I fix it by restarting the file explorer from the task manager, the problem is that is is happening 5 times per week.
Is there a way to solve the problem forever?

My PC:
Windows 11 pro 64-bit
AMD Ryzen 5 7600x
Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Super
Kingston FURY Beast 32GB 6000MT/s DDR5
Kingston KC3000 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD
MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI
Gigabyte UD850GM power supply unit 850 W
Monitor: Samsung - 27” ViewFinity S7 4k UHD 60Hz

is it the taskbar freezing or just the clock?

right click start
choose Terminal (Admin)
If it opens as command prompt, choose the drop down arrow in the title row and pick Powershell
copy/paste this command into window:

Repair-WindowsImage -Online -RestoreHealth

and press enter


Then type SFC /scannow

and press enter


Restart PC if SFC fixes any files as some fixes require a restart to be implemented

First command repairs the files SFC uses to clean files, and SFC fixes system files

SFC = System File Checker. First command runs DISM - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/what-is-dism?view=windows-11

There are a few other suggestions here:

edit: brain explosion made me type Control panel instead of Command prompt...
