NetboxGlobal Sadly, you can't. This is the new hellscape delivered unto us.

 

It seems that it was decided that leaving icons grouped looked more pretty, despite it slaughtering productivity, and there is absolutly no way to ungroup taskbar icons in Windows 11 at this stage.

    I registered for this community forum so i can comment on how much i am disappointed with microsoft for getting rid of WINDOWS in the taskbar and instead grouped everything up to an icon. STOP BEING APPLE'S COPYCAT.

    Couldn't agree more!  Can't think of a benefit Windows 11 provides that comes close to losing the ungroup feature.  Let me know how best to raise this issue so as to increase the chances it's addressed.
