KapilArya is anyone aware of an official fix for this being released any time soon?

Laurdor3 Hi
We expect the solution officially to be provided in this fall Windows 11 update.

omersayli yeah it was introduced in the Dev Channel but it’s been removed so I wouldn’t hold your breath. Microsoft are clown shoes, focussing on all the frilly stuff nobody really wants or needs.

Its been 2 years and this feature still isnt back.
Microsofti s really screwing things up lately. It's really annoying.- ElboylerAug 16, 2023Brass Contributor
Agracooter I've installed latest 'dev' build and the option for never combine is accessible. So there is a progress. The question might be when are they going to push it to beta and so on.

Looks like it has been 2 years and nothing has been done about this. as well as you cant resize notepad to the way you want and so many other utterly stupid restrictions that do not make any sense.
- teomil1231312May 06, 2023Copper ContributorTruly the most outrageous and disgusting removal of a necessary feature I have seen in my life. It needs to be top priority to add it in Windows 11.
^ Btw I can resize notepad so not sure what you are referring to
