    The 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.

Why would you take functionality away?!?!? Sure this looks prettier to the Apple crowd but guess what productivity power users are on Windows for a reason!! The direction MS is going they will soon be no better than Apple in terms of productivity. I work in Excel 8-10 hours per day with multiple files at a time. This has significantly reduced my productivity. What would it hurt to have an option to ungroup?!?!? Afraid the Apple crowd might see it and not like it??
