File Explorer in Windows 11 does not show text under buttons. This is confusing for older people.
I provide tech support to older consumers in their homes, teaching, streamlining, upgrading and assisting with Windows, Android, iOS and Amazon Fire (tablet) devices. Most of my clients are aged 60-8...
- And yet another voice supporting this proposal. I have no idea why, ever, an "icons and text" display option is not available, even if it's not the default. I've been using Windows since it first hit the street, and I still "read the text" more quickly than I recognize the icons for certain things.
Please bring "icons and text" back!
This is really backward recession by microsoft. A lot of people have aphantasia (they do not have a minds eye) and the images are just useless. I would only use text labels if they were available. Please, please, please microsoft bring back the text options (or at least the labels). Currently I have a printed version with the icons and have to match them manually to click everytime. Please bring back text labels. This has rendered other apps useless for me as well (like the screen snipper)
Spot on. It's an accessibility issue. Rumey_rumj
