Can't un-combine taskbar items in Windows 11 after latest update

It's been over a year, and still no fix on this?
Another reason to dump windows for linux.

Someone who probably does not use Windows in any productive way.

This needs to be fixed ASAP. It takes away from productivity and makes it harder for those of us who work better when we do not have to 15 clicks to get one thing done.

Updated to 22H2 22621.2715.

New taskbar behaviour: overflow section created (3 dots button) when there are too many apps. Windows decides when that is true. No way to move an app from that overflow area to the 'main' taskbar or vice versa. No way to order the apps in the overflow area - you need to click those 3 dots and then go scanning where the app you're looking for actually is. Bonus: some icons use different image in the overflow area vs in the main taskbar! Plus there is unused taskbar space left that cannot be used, there is a hard separator line that cannot be moved.

Suddenly, all the apps are ungrouped in the taskbar again, so back to the square 1 I guess. But changing settings for Combine task bar buttons and hide labels does nothing!

Microsoft has outdone themselves once again. Every taskbar change in the last 3 years went against user productivity.

I'm under the impression the the OP was referring to an insider build (beta'ish tester). I'm unaware if this has gone mainstream yet. But for what it's worth you aren't missing anything because the build that i have, the option doesn't even function. I rather it not be there than be able to see it and it does nothing.

Uhhh some folks do have the option as well as myself. However, there is no change to the interface upon switching through the options. I'm understanding you don't have these options but the statements we've made are not incorrect.
