Ungroup items on the Taskbar in Windows 11
This is by far the WORST DECISION Microsoft could have made.
- RobQ_MVPOct 30, 2022Iron ContributorIts hard developing an OS that fits the needs of everyone. Ideally what we need is options that lets every customise where they need it.
For the best way to feedback on your personal experience, I suggest either (or both), becoming a Windows Insider (which you do from settings, Windows Update) and leaving feedback via the Windows Feedback hub.
There are several themes on this and on a recent Community call - this was highly requested.

D2787 I absolutely agree!
Microsoft has been always famous for usability and for following user best practices.
I really hope unstack taskbar option will be reintroduced as in my ultrawide monitor the taskbar looks very tiny and silly.
It takes me a good 2-3 seconds every switch of window to find what I am looking for.
Otherwise I'll be forced to use a 3rd party hack.

Whos idea was it not to allow ungrouped icons on the taskbar.
Massively inefficient and thought Microsoft was meant to make your life easier and more efficient not the other way around.
I don't mind the pretty pictures we can now do but who really cares about them - give us back the increased efficiency Deleted

The Microsoft team has changed access to system tasks and the taskbar for security reasons, for sure the further development of Windows11 will partially restore some features for performance improvements - that's why there is this space for discussion and surely Microsoft engineers see all these posts.
