So how does Microsoft determine which features to fix and/or add back to this new Taskbar? It uses telemetry data, of course. And as expected, it’s gotten a lot of feedback about those missing features. When Microsoft completely rewrote the Taskbar in Windows 11-to be “more performant,” one of the AMA members claims-it broke functionality that has worked for many years. The previous Taskbars and their behaviors were controlled by Windows, and when users moved them to other screen edges, things just worked as expected. That’s not true: how the Taskbar works is a system function, not something that every app needs to manually adjust for. “When you think about having the Taskbar on the right or the left, all of a sudden the reflow and the work that all of the apps have to do to be able to understand the environment is just huge.” “When it comes to something like actually being able to move the Taskbar to different locations on the screen, there’s a number of challenges with that,” Microsoft’s Tali Roth responds after a “preamble” when asked about moving the Taskbar. In an online AMA, Windows 11 team members explained that fixing the limitations it built into the Windows 11 taskbar is not a priority.
