Why take away a feature?-taskbar

Cav Scout 0

Why take away a feature that has existed for years? I can't resize my taskbar and I can't move the position? 40 years of muscle memory gone.

Discovered this morning that my work computer was auto-upgraded to win11. Whatever, can't control that. But I can tell you that under no circumstances will my home systems be upgraded to win11 as long as I can't move/resize my taskbar. I realize my 200-300 bucks means nothing to microsoft, but doesn't change my stance.

Thanks for nothing.

Hello,

I understand your frustration with the changes made in Windows 11, especially regarding the taskbar functionality. Many users have become accustomed to certain features and workflows over the years, and the removal or alteration of those can be quite jarring.

Microsoft made several changes to the taskbar in Windows 11, however, these changes don’t always align with every user’s preferences or workflow.

If you'd like, you can provide direct feedback to Microsoft through the Feedback Hub app included with Windows 11. This way, you can voice your concerns and potentially influence future updates. Microsoft often takes user feedback into consideration when making updates or changes to its operating systems.

Thank you very much for your understanding.
