Windows 11 taskbar labels
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'm used to Win10 in desktop pc but today I bought a laptop with Win11 preinstalled and the second thing after aligning the icons on the left has been trying to read the **bleep** app titles, most of the taskbar is empty with a couple of icons all grouped on the left.
Chrome, I can't read the page title.
PhpStorm sessions, I can't read project titles to fast switch between them.
SublimeText, likewise.
PuTTY sessions, likewise.
This lack is slowing me down terribly, please tell me there is some tweak available.
MS will never fix it. You need 3rd party like startallback (a few dollars or a nag screen but does more stuff) or the free classic shell or open shell (can't remember which is the new name), which is totally free but misses out on a few features.
I get a proper start menu and taskbar, the good old days:

- Ok thanks.
I don't mind the new Start tbh, just the taskbar.drlightman I don't understand how anyone can use the new start menu. There's nothing in it but adverts and "suggestions" involving random documents you recently opened. To get a program, you either have to pin it or find it alphabetically. Where the hell is the most useful part, most recently used apps?
