How to enable 'Never Combine taskbar buttons'. Windows 11 ?
The feature was alive and well in Windows 10. It is the most requested feature in Windows 11 and Microsoft have apparently been “working extremely hard on the issue” for nearly 3 years. They haven’t even responded to feedback on their own feedback hub.
Make no mistake, Microsoft could have this fixed and implemented in weeks if they wanted to.
I’m on Windows 11 Dev Channel and the Never Combine feature is there (which brings hope that it’s coming officially greg) but the feature is not as good as it is in Windows 10.
In my opinion Windows 11 remains a far inferior product to Windows 10. It looks and feels very like Windows 10 but with basic features removed or restricted.
If Microsoft wanted to help America grow technological, they would offer Windows 10 as free upgrade to Windows 11 for the people who do technological work and leave Windows 11 for the web surfers, gamers and emailers.
- Because some new computer only come with Windows 11. For example, some company's with computers on sale will not allow changing operating software and some computer company's only will sell computers with Windows 11 . This happened to me.

Interesting -> earlier in this thread recommended to reinstall Windows10 and remove (Windows11, because it does not meet the expectations of many users)
Could you explain why someone would reinstall Windows11?
Why do you recommend it?
- Give the new windows 11 iso a try maybe all of you need is to backup your storage device and reinstall windows and see the change.

I am not so optimistic as well as majority of people in this thread. Don't you feel that your optimism is ungrounded and based simply on your lack of information?
I will not upgrade to Windows 11 in the nearest future and will advise all my sane friends do the same, and in general to all the people who do on their laptops something more complex than watching Youtube.
There is no single justification for multi-billion corporation Microsoft for not fixing this minor bug for years except the absolute negligence towards the users and total disrespect. Simply speaking they just don't give a $hit on us.- There are a multitude of viewpoints expressed here, and for the most part, I align with the sentiments conveyed. It's important that we collectively recognise and embrace the constant presence of change in our world—nothing remains static, and this principle extends to operating systems as well.
Windows 10 was undoubtedly a more polished offering, and it's widely acknowledged that the release of Windows 11 felt hurried, brimming with glitches, and lacking the refinement one expects from a finished product. Reflecting on my own experience, when I initially tried Windows 11 about a year ago, it failed to impress. However, circumstances eventually led me to upgrade, and I've since adjusted to using Windows 11.
Numerous individuals contend that Microsoft could have easily rectified the issue with the taskbar grouping feature. I share this viewpoint. It seems excessive for a seemingly straightforward aspect, which existed in the prior version, to necessitate a three-year timespan for implementation. Yet, we remain uncertain about what other priorities may have taken precedence or whether Windows drew inspiration from macOS. Perhaps one of the notable shortcomings of both Windows 11 and to some extent Windows 10 was the simultaneous coexistence of legacy and modern approaches. As an example, while we gained the Settings feature, the Control Panel endured. This duality can lead to confusion, and certain tasks that once required a single click now demand four or five. The intent may have been to simplify, but paradoxically, it ended up creating complexity.
Undoubtedly, I'm optimistic that over time, the aspects we find less favourable about Windows 11 will be addressed. Anticipation surrounds the 23H2 release, as it holds the promise of delivering the improvements and enhancements we've voiced our desires for.
