    Probably integrated into the new service / package.

    You're tweaking Windows here so you're mostly on your own. Good luck.

    How about using 3rd party program like startisback++, open-shell, or else. Maybe these apps could help to handle taksbar and startmenu.

    Comparing User Experience package v10.0.21390.1 with 10.0.21996.1, they have moved many features to User Experience pack and removing it breaks these features.

    does it bring back the old taskbar?

    sib works nicely with win11 as far as i know

    the problem i have with the new taskbar
    that i need to click on the icon and then choose 1 from many windows that are opened

    mb the "final" version of win11 eventually will bring the tabs back

    to fix right click it is one of the options in the config of startisback . I think it is one of the modern ap ui options I will have to check witch one when I get home ....

  16. I love startisback++ thatswhy i always remove startmenuhost from systemapps.
    But users always say that open shell is much more better then this & i have never ever tested openshell being a die hard fan of startisback++.
