Windows 11 taskbar labels
I was eager to install the official Windows 11 release today, however upon reading first I noticed that ungrouping taskbar icons / showing labels is not available anymore in Windows 11. Why the h...
It looks like the perfect way - but it doesn't work here. I set the value to 2 and after restart and then checking it was set to 2 - but still no labels. Do you have any ideas? aBuntobox
I logged a ticket with Microsoft about this problem and being on the spectrum and working with separated taskbar windows now having to change to combined locked in like Apple jail experience is a huighe disorienting experience for me.
I guess Microsoft doesn't care about people with disability because I was listened to for 30 minutes and they said to go back to Win 10 - they cant change or add options in Win 11. I guess Windows just copies MacOS taskbar these days. Total joke
Then if I have to deal with the combined mishmash then at the very least give me a setting in taskbar settings to adjust the font size of the name tags inside the combined group of windows as the text is tiny. And no - I cant increase font for the whole OS because I need it full res for everything else.
Wasted pointless time being pretended to by support team that they care about people with disability and then being told by win 11 development team that its not gonna happen. Apple has gotten into the minds of Windows developers. Windows used to be good now its just copying MacOS.
MacOS is great if you like that style and I support that for those that want it. I personally prefer the Windows productivity experience.
I have also lost the ability to create mini icon group in taskbar from a custom folder. Have to pin everything in start with 4 pages worth of pinned icons. Its nuts and slows me down and hard to adjust. Other aspies out there - are you experiencing similar problems with this changes in Win 11?

CyberkiteI've said this several times before so forgive the repeat. In short, **bleep** Microsoft and load Explorer Patcher. Life is good without having to **bleep** to morons like short-sighted Microsoft_shitheads who refuse to even explain their reasoning. Assholes.
One more time: Many of us work in places where any user who attempts to add software (not provided by our employer) will get us 🔥'd.
