I went through all the trouble of enabling the UEFI/BIOS stuff I needed for the upgrade. Then I found out what they did to the taskbar and decided not to get it.
Last time I checked, the third highest voted feature request in the built-in feedback tool is to take the recommended section out of the start menu. A couple years after launch the best we got is the product manager saying “we added an option to reduce the size :)” So it’s definitely intended for advertising, and I don’t do advertising. The professional version used to allow people to customise away that kind of bullshit, but not on W11.
It has a setting to at least not show anything there but it still leaves a blank space. Seems like something that would have a mod somewhere to get rid of it.
Seriously, the Taskbar shit has me considering going to Linux for even my gaming pc, especially since they've said they have no intention of fixing it. So stupid to get rid of such a common customization just so you can see their fancy start menu.
If you dont play competitive multiplayer, Steam Deck's version of Linux runs damn near every game at this point
I use "StartIsBack" it's so good. Makes the taskbar exactly how I want it (it's customisable). I've got it functioning closer to Windows 7 but with the look of 11 but still keeping it thin. Well worth the money. Shame it required a third party app for me to really like 11 though.
The Windows 11 version is called StartAllBack and makes Windows 11 much better. Annoyed I had to pay for an upgrade but it was worth it
That might be the one I have, I think I just remembered it as startisback
