Window 11 Taskbar size
Hello! I recently updated my Windows 10 to Windows 11. However, the taskbar size is too small, and I have followed various methods to fix it but to no avail. Can you please help me fix this issue?

I have this unchecked and taskbar set to left position and it is now the normal size.

There is an open source piece of software called ExplorerPatcher that replaces back the taskbar with the old style windows 10.
I do not condone using 3rd party software but in this instance its a very good workaround that allows all the previous configuration.
Just search google for it. Should be top link on google

2024-06-24T19:18:05+00:00 I would like to do the same as Maria Clarke. Resize the Taskbar so that the icons wrap around and show on two lines. In Windows 10, we could do this simply by right-clicking and choosing "unlock taskbar" That option appears not to exist in Windows 11. How do we resize the taskbar in Windows 11 so that the taskbar is two rows high?
