Is the feature removed from win 11?Was it in the way of revolutionary ease of use efforts?

Ungrouping items on the Taskbar

Is it possible to ungroup items on the Taskbar WITHOUT playing around in the registry and WITHOUT any third party software?

I've been using 7+ Taskbar Tweaker on my desktop PC. I need to find a way to do this on my laptop without it.

Here is an example of ungrouping so there is no confusion.





Is there an option or setting within Windows to do this?

Thanks

 

Ungroup sessions in the Taskbar

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you want to ungroup the sessions for Antares app in the Taskbar, and keep all other apps grouped.



There is a setting we can change to ungroup the applications in the Taskbar. However, this will ungroup all the other applications in the Taskbar as well. You may want to try it and see if that helps:

1. Press Windows Logo key + I, to open
   Settings.
   
2. Click on Personalization and select
   Taskbar from the left pane.
   
3. Select Never from the drop down for
   Combine taskbar buttons.
   

However, we always appreciate our customer’s feedback, and your feedback and suggestions are very important to us. Hence, I suggest you to provide your valuable feedback and ideas in our
Feedback Hub, where our developers can look
into the requests and constantly improve the features of Windows.
