This issue has just started and I have absolutely no idea what is going on, I have not installed or done anything before this problem started. When I click the search bar in the bottom left it doesn't open, when I click the windows button itself it opens but whenever I click on anything in it it will close. I've tried going to Reddit for help with some suggestions but nothing works. My windows+tab shortcut also does not open. I've tried clearing cmos, reinstalling windows apps, restarting explorer, and a few other small things with no luck. I've tried googling the issue but have not found anything that has fixed this issue. If anyone knows what I can try or a fix please let me know, thank you!

Is your windows up to date? If not try that first. Otherwise I would reinstall windows

Every driver is up to date and windows itself is up to date as well. I've been trying to fix it for a while now with no luck, I've seen videos where people claim to have the same problem but I've tried 20+ different things now and nothing is working. I have a lot of important stuff on my computer and a few terabytes of games, I would rather not have to reinstall Windows, I also have no idea what my key is so I would probably have to buy it again..
