Of course, Task Manager is a very useful tool and we need to open it from time to time but now it is sad to see that the most convenient option for opening Task Manager (Right-Clicking on Taskbar>Task Manager) has disappeared. I suggest to Microsoft should bring back this option since I am using this way back from Windows XP till Windows 10.

Try right clicking the windows button on the taskbar, it's available there along with other useful shortcuts.

That only works if you use the Microsoft shell. That is the FIRST thing I disable with a new Windows.

mdcleaver So, you cripple Windows' features intentionally and then complain that a sub-feature is missing? And this is Microsoft's problem exactly why?

    mdcleaver this was a remark to your statement that a) right-clicking on the windows symbol will only bring a context menu leading to task manager when "Microsoft shell is being used" and b) that you purposely disable this shell for whatever reasons.
    
    BTW: I have not been able to confirm your statement a). By "Microsoft shell" do you mean "Powershell" or "Windows Shell" or the "Standard Shell" (sysgen_standardshell)? How to disable it and why?
