    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.

I agree. Why does Microsoft remove usability features for no **bleep** reason? Bring it back.

 

I wouldn't have upgraded if I knew that this feature was completely removed. Stop making the OS look shiny at the expense of usability!

The changes to the Taskbar are probably going to get me switch to Apple, and that's saying something since Apple have ridiculous prices in a walled garden. That being said I bet Apple haven't changed the core functionality of their OS after 20 years. Ridiculous.
