Action center locked at half length.
This began with my latest update to Windows 11 beta. The action center comes up and ends toward the lower right of the desktop but is cut around 1/3 toward the top. As a result, the slide bars for so...

After lots of investigation, I managed to find out. Windows 11 does not support Taskbar positioning to the Top. That means that if you edit the registry of use an alternate tool like Taskbar 11, The taskbar will show on top but the Action Center will display cut off.
If you like to display the taskbar on top, then you'll have to tolerate the cut off action center, till Windows 11 comes up with the menu to position on top hence they'll be able to correct the action center and display as a whole.

NicoMan77 Wow, that's it.
It really makes you wonder why change something that's not for the better.
When Microsoft broke a bunch of stuff with Windows Vista, I understood. That was bringing the OS to a new level of appearance. Using GPU composition made it possible to create much more compelling aesthetics.
But we've reached a level where changes in appearance now are like clothing fashion. We got from solid to transparent and then back to solid. To flat to shadow and then back. From color to grayscale and back.
At this point we just gotta have options. Companies should not be locking people up in whatever they think is best. And they certainly should not be removing a perfectly working way to let people have a side taskbar (maybe they really want us to have the 60% whitespace we do in this very website) and when you think you can at least have it on the top of the screen: no, you don't.
