The progress bar in Windows 10 differs from that in Windows 11.

The progress bar in Win10 (e.g., during downloads or file copying) feels different compared to Win11, and I'm not quite used to it. Is this a system setting, or can it be changed back to the Win10 style?

  • Officially, Windows 11 doesn’t offer a built-in setting to revert the progress bars to the Windows 10 style. The new progress indicator is integrated into the system design, and Microsoft has focused on a more minimal, animated approach.
