Windows 11 taskbar labels
- Nov 17, 2021
It looks like the perfect way - but it doesn't work here. I set the value to 2 and after restart and then checking it was set to 2 - but still no labels. Do you have any ideas? aBuntobox
This is really the appearance of the screen for people with low vision, it can be enlarged, in Windows10, and Windows11.

Does the taskbar still only go at the bottom? I use startallback on all machines to replace the MS rubbish, so I have no idea what the windows taskbar is like. I stopped using it after Windows 7. I just can't stand the new look, it's like a Mac!
Not sure what you mean by limiting things to the system. Startallback and many utilities to monitor CPU usage etc work fine and always have. - DeletedFeb 06, 2023
Yes, this is the right way to provide feedback, in July 2021 I already wrote that there is a problem with the taskbar, but the Zero Trust principle caused the blocking and removal of processes that had direct access to system tasks (to limit the scope of the attack).
Win11 taskbar only at the bottom of the screen - it needs to be changed! - Microsoft Community Hub

I have done so, I selected to add it to something similar, and it's not showing up as anything I've posted yet, but I assume it will at some point. I'd never heard of the feedback hub. Do they really listen?

I like this discussion - your response is constructive, but I don't work at Microsoft, please add these screenshots in the Feedback Hub App

Deleted That's not the problem under discussion. As I've said, I have perfect vision, but I absolutely detest this utter nonsense:
Why are the running programs so similar to the shortcuts? Just that tiny little bar underneath! Why do they expect everyone to remember what the icon for each program looks like? How do I open another program? The start menu is just full of news and weather forecasts! Now compare that to mine, where you can easily see what's going on:
The links to start programs are... in the start menu where they belong. The most often used automatically goes to the top. Running programs are on the taskbar, with English words I can read!
