My system just did the lastest windows 11 update and all my tasbar items have been combined. When I go into taskbar behaviours to uncheck the option, the option does not exist? I tried searching settings and nothing appears. What can I do?

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Windows update

    Please expedite it!!! I am going mad wasting minutes every hour with the wasted mouse hovering and extra clicks now required to get to the window I need to reference for my work in another window. Even 3 or 4 monitors would not help me as the nature of my work requires multiple Word documents and PDFs open at once, as well as several Outlook items....

    This is absolutely infuriating! Not being able to ungroup icons on the taskbar is going backwards, not forwards. There is still no option to ungroup in settings. Wish I could revert back to Windows 10. Why do Microsoft do this? Is it a windup?

    Absolutely absurd that the Never Combine was removed. Makes me want to go with Mac. Who is responsible for QA? This is an incredibly frustrating experience to function and multi-task efficiently. Microsoft made a BAD mistake. Fix it ASAP please!
