Is there a way to make shortcuts work like this in Windows 11?
I want to change how my shortcuts work in Windows 11. Is there a setting or method to do this?

It’s not entirely clear what you’re trying to do.
Judging by your title, I assume you want to change the view so that it looks the same as it did in Windows 7.
Answer: No, it’s not possible to make the ‘default view’ in Windows 11 Settings look like it did in Windows 7. At least not using the standard Windows tools.
Judging by your text: I assume you want to be able to change or reassign certain shortcuts (`Win + d`).
Answer: Yes, this is possible! Not using Windows’ built-in tools, but with the Microsoft tool ‘PowerToys’. More specifically, with ‘Keyboard Manager’.
