How to enable 'Never Combine taskbar buttons'. Windows 11 ?
Hi @all I did not find this function 'Never Combine taskbar buttons'. How can this function be found and enabled in windows 11? I can't work with multi-tab on windows 11. Thank you!

hoanglongson for now you may try https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher/releases
You just put dxgi dll into windows folder, restart and you can tweak taskbar to be like in windows 10 with nevercombine options etc. Everything is described in the link.

Windows 11 + Explorer Patcher + 22H2 update = broken system. What a surprise that was.

Hi MarcusD2125
" 22H2 update = broken system."
Can you explain it ( 22H2 just restores the default settings for Win11 )
Does not damage Windows!
- MarcusD2125Oct 27, 2022Iron ContributorDepending on the configuration of Explorer Patcher, updating with 22H2 can render almost the whole desktop unusable. Nothing responds. Keyboard shortcuts need to be used to open applications. Uninstalling EP and reinstalling with new version fixes..
Whole point is that it's a hassle. Admittedly it's only going to be a potential problem every six months, but still not something anyone is going to want to deal with. Third party solutions are not solutions, they're band-aids and not really acceptable. More importantly it demonstrates potential for more severe issues or even damage to an install in the future. This time it was relatively minor, next time? Who knows?- DeletedOct 27, 2022
Thank you, your answer is helpful!
I believe that the solution may be (uninstalling additional applications that have changed the registers in the system to have Win10 features, ) before installing the 22H2 update.
