Bring back Taskbar at the top with multiple rows and Toolbars in Windows 11
Hi everyone, I just submitted new feedback in the Feedback Hub about the taskbar in Windows 11. Many of us miss the flexibility we had in Windows 10, and I think it's important Microsoft hears this from as many users as possible. Specifically, the feedback asks Microsoft to: - Allow the taskbar to be moved to the top (and other sides) of the screen. - Bring back multi-row taskbars for people who pin many apps. - Support custom toolbars again (quick access to folders, files, and shortcuts). - Make it possible to keep system tray icons always visible without extra clicks. If you also miss these features, please upvote the feedback here: https://aka.ms/AAxn2ht The Windows taskbar has always been one of the most important parts of the OS, and restoring these customization options would improve productivity and make Windows 11 more user-friendly for everyone. Thanks for supporting this! Niklas, SwedenLet's discuss about Windows Setup (offline) - what would you wish for? - Panther 2.0
After more than 10 years the Windows Setup (offline) has not changed. And comparing to other OSes this becomes very obvious. We are all familiar with the Windows Setup. It appear very streamlined. The UX is still in Windows Vista Design, not following any principles of design language, comparing to OOBE, this is so obvious. Changing the UI and changing the workflow does not really need to change the tooling like unattend.xml etc. rather bringing more of these what you could automate back to the user and his choice. If you happen to install the current Kubuntu / Ubuntu then you will notice a huge advantage of the setup process compared to Windows in offline phase: - you can specify the login / account (Windows OOBE) - specify the time zone and language (Windows OOBE) - connect to WiFi (Windows OOBE) - download updates and DRIVERS from the repository (Windows OOBE has a late feature for that but not consistent) While setting things up the OS is already installing so you effectively save much of time compared to Windows Setup. I understand the investments into Windows Setup are minimal since Windows Vista / WS 2008, yet it changed a lot in terms of speed, design and UX and especially technology like WIM, language independency. Investing in to Windows Setup (panther) might not be feasible as many automations rely on this (ConfigMgr, MDT (no longer supported with W11), Intune Autopilot AND most device come predeployed. It is about time for the Windows and Windows Server to reconsider what's technically possible. Thanks for your feedback and participation on this here and please also in Feedback hub (Windows key + F). Here's my item feedback hub https://aka.ms/AAohace Wishes, ideas?
