follow-up question. You can make it never combine, but it hides the extras when you have too many open, which isn't really very many. Why can't you remove labels until you hover & make the tabs smaller so they fit better?

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?
