How can I custom toolbar/taskbar on Win 11?
I'm trying to restore a custom toolbar on my Windows 11 taskbar that directly links to a folder, as I find it very convenient for accessing frequently used programs. Previously, I could place these on the right side of the taskbar, but now I can only adjust the position of the main taskbar to the left or middle.
I've looked through numerous YouTube tutorials but haven't found a solution yet.
If there's no built-in way to do this in Windows 11, could someone recommend a widget or third-party program that might help? Thanks in advance!
1. Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar and select "Taskbar settings" (or search for "Taskbar settings" in the Start menu).
2. In the Taskbar settings window, click on the "Behavior" tab.
3. Under "Taskbar buttons", toggle on "Show task view button" to add a button to the taskbar.
You can also customize the taskbar behavior by adjusting the settings under "Taskbar alignment" and "Taskbar appearance".

Any other way to achieve this without 3rd party software? That option doesn't exist.

- Hi. I installed the new free True launchbar app in my Win 11 system. However How do I get it to show on the taskbar as the Toolbars option is not there when I right click on the taskbar. Please help as I like the win 11 taskbar but want my True launch bar icon on it. Thanks.
