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.

Hey Microsoft Dev's! How can you not understand that adding a navigation layer slows down productivity?? Open 12 different Excel sheets and 7 different Word Docs and 5 different Powerpoints, then navigate between them with uncombined buttons....then take away the uncombined buttons and you will see your navigation slow because of the new layer.... perhaps you will have a Eureka moment and insist to put the "never combine" feature BACK!!

Q2director Think it’s already been put back. Not quite the same as in Win10 but it’s better than it was.
