    Get the small registry file "Explorer Patcher" is free & I have used it since Aug on a new WIn11 Pro with no problems. It resets taskbar back to Win10 style

    This is a feature that many users want, but unfortunately, it is currently not possible in Windows 11. I heard that Microsoft is considering adding this feature, but there is currently no way to adjust the height of the taskbar in Windows 11.

    Even if they let us move it would help. Whoever changed this should be fired ~ yesterday

    I agree whoever thought of locking the taskbar and making so not be unlocked then adding it to Windows 11 should not only be fired yesterday or before yesterday but he should be shot after being fired. This might have been done because they were trying to clean your Windows desktop up for you but they should leave that up to the user and stop messing Windows with things that are not needed and very likely never will be needed.

    I also want to "unlock" my task bar. I can't believe this is not in win 11, what a joke.

    I ALWAYS have my taskbar 1 click taller, especially with 4k desktop.

    Please fix this like yesterday! Sheesh!
