So I set up my test lab with a domain controller and some clients and changing things in Windows 11 is just a complete nightmare. I see that they finally added the option to where you can ungroup icons on the task bar in this latest update but holy shit man it’s been 2 years… and we’re barely getting basic functionality that’s been in Windows 10 for 8 years now? How does a development team this size get lead so far astray from their target audience?
Don’t even get me started on the Xbox bullshit that comes on a Windows pro machine used in a business environment. I’m getting fed up with windows more and more every day.
Also all these extra bullshit apps like Chat, Teams home. Why are they there ootb on a pro license?
Totally agree, I think Win11 is still not worth upgrading too.
l got laughed at on Reddit (and probably will here too) for expecting a small task bar in Win11. I’ll not switch if it means downgrading compared to Win10. I don’t need big icons and waste of space.

Registry hack
Doesn’t work properly, you’ll get clipping stuff and something with the clock will be off. It will also likely revert with updates.
