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.
Microsoft, I never post on forums but I am making an exception for this. I have used Windows products since Windows 3 and I love them. I have always gone along with all the changes you've brought throughout the years. But this time, I am really disappointed. Grouping icons is a HUGE waste of time and productivity. It is really annoying and boring to have to work with this all day long. I am wasting a lot of time for nothing and the pain does no go away with time. I really really really hope and encourage you to bring back this feature. A lot of us use Windows for work (which means we want to be productive ; we don't care about the looks of things) and ungrouping icons in the task bar is a really really really important feature for so many of us. I thank you in advance.
