How to let windows 11 "never combine taskbar buttons"?
- 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.
Wow, I just upgraded to Win11 after waiting this long for MS to sort out issues only to find very fundamental task bar functionality is missing. Can't ungroup? Seriously? I have a 32" primary monitor and now have at least 18" of blank taskbar sitting idle - what a waste! I can have a fair number of spreadsheets and browser windows open and relied heavily on having each show up on the taskbar for fast switching. Not any more... But I do get unused taskbar space... Don't even get me started on my customized group of icons I created a view for on the Win10 taskbar which I use regularly - also gone with no way to restore. Obviously complaining here doesn't do any good but had to anyway.
