Heres an idea, What if you nuke the whole thing?
But we’re sure that the developer community will find a workaround for this.
This includes things like the system tray icons, flyout menus, and taskbar buttons.
Next, you’ll find the apps section, again like it used to be in Windows 10.
You’ll see full names of the apps, and windows, underlined to show open apps.
Hover over to see a preview, and contextual buttons.
The interesting part here, is of course that even the flyout menus are from Windows 10.
The same goes for the clock.
How to customize the taskbar to make it even better
The default setup is itself quite good.
Every single element of the taskbar and the start menu here is customizable.
Right-nudge the empty part of the taskbar, and click Properties.
Go toStart Menu>Start Menu Styleand choose theWindows 10option.
Now, let’s customize the taskbar itself.
FromTaskbar >Primary taskbar location on screen,you could dock the taskbar to the top of the screen.
you might also revert back to Windows 11 style taskbar icons if you like.
you might customize the flyouts for each individual system tray menu.
you could choose to see the Windows 8 style menu, or the Windows 11 start flyout.
ExplorerPatcher also fixes the whole weather widgets issue in Windows 11.
Now, the old weather widget is back.
you could do this by keeping the app around as well.
Go toProperties>About>Restore Default Settingsto bring back the Windows 11 style taskbar.
