Windows 10: Never combine windows and Show labels settings missing along with some other features.

Hello there, I am currently running Windows 11 with 22H2 and OS build being 22621.2428.A few days ago I received a new update I don't remeber its build number or anything but basically it included settings such as Auto Brightness, Volume mixer in Volume settings from Taskbar where I can set volume for each individual app, Taskbar setting wherein I can choose to show label of Windows and never combine them etc. However after a day or two all these settings have disappeared. The Homepage in the settings app still shows the info in new way I'll attach the screenshot here Also I remember cleanin

I understand Microsoft for Windows 11 has brought back a feature to "never combine" or "combine only when the taskbar is full. I found this article.

Problem with a combine taskbar icons.

Hello,

In Windows 10, you can personalize the settings of your taskbar. If there are multiple applications opened, same applications will be combined under one taskbar button. If you want to change this setting, we suggest that you follow the steps listed below:

• Press the Start button.
• Click on the Settings app.
• Select Personalization.
• At the left side of your window, click on Taskbar.
• Under Combine taskbar buttons, choose Never.

Kindly update us with the results and if you have further queries, feel free to post back.
