How to let windows 11 "never combine taskbar buttons"?
How to let windows 11 "never combine taskbar buttons"?
- Jul 30, 2024The November 2023 update added “never combined” mode on the taskbar for Windows 11. To find this feature, go to Settings > Personalization > Taskbar > Taskbar behaviors. Set Combine taskbar buttons and hide labels to Never. It also added a separate setting for turning this feature on for other taskbars when you use multiple monitors.

Please bring back never combine option! It's unproductive! I have installed windows 10 again. OMG Microsoft!

100% agree, I have accidentally closed entire window groups more times that I can count in the past month. I haven't reverted to 10 yet but very close to. Come on MS, lets get this fixed. psychedelicu
- deepaksoni01Jan 23, 2022Copper ContributorLack of the option to turn it off & on is frustrating. Evenmore, I'm unable to install 10' from the receovery option. Seems like it was a wrong decision upgrading without fully reading their manual.
- HyperPeteOct 06, 2021Iron ContributorThere is a hack available to resolve this, but it forces the classic start menu.
Do a web search, you'll find it.
Add me to the list of disgruntled users, Microsoft. Allow us to never combine taskbar tabs again, please!- SteveBredallAug 31, 2022Copper ContributorAgreed. And, if we implement the hack, there is no telling what other negative ramifications may manifest.

So you're saying it fixes TWO problems at once.
Great!
