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

    i upgraded to windows 11 looked at this thread and had the uncombine taskbar feature in 2 days

    You have to follow everybodies instructions

    sign in to windows insider program

    do windows updates and additional updates should get new feature.

    after you get you can turn all this off

    I am off this thread after this post

    Good luck

    Sadly not everyone have the opportunity to go on insider build.

    This is really frustrating when you work in corporate business and you have no option to change it.

    Thanks for the details, Osman. It didn't help in my case, though. My Windows update is managed by internal IT, my Windows is locked down, I'm not an admin on my machine. So I could not run the Windows Updater. More weirdly, I also don't have a "Reset" function on the Taskbar settings dialog. Any other tipps?

    With latest version it is possible to uncombine but when doing uncombine the labels are visible which is not good...
