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

    Still no luck with the uncombine Taskbar Options. I check every day at least 10 times. Click on windows updates. I really need this option back..... BTW. Windows 11 is the worst ever.. For the record.....

    Hi Lucas,

    Register on the "Windows Insider Program" select the "dev" channel for pre updates you can select and then wait a few hours and it should come through when you click on update again.
