    Use StartAllBack. Not only does it restore the old Taskbar features, it also lets you do even more things, like have the Start button on the left but keep the icons centered, and customize the transparency level (among other things). You can even use your favorite era of Start menu (7, 8.1, 10). Personally I’m using Win7’s Start Menu with Windows 11-related buttons added in (like Settings).

    (Edit: It does cost $5 after a 90 day trial, but that’s less than the cost of lunch, and with all the features you’re getting I’d gladly pay 10x the amount.)

      This right here is why I run Linux. Holy hell. It just does whatever I want, for free.

        Except support HDR. Which is the main reason why I use Win 11. No other OS does HDR properly.

          I think that’s been working on Wayland with some gotchas for different applications. I forget, I use normal resolutions.

        I think you can do XP too. Haven’t checked in awhile. Install the program and try for yourself.

      StartAllBack is good but I personally use and prefer Start11

        Start11 is much better. I have a license for both and I periodically check in on StartAllBack every couple of months and nothing has made me want to go back to it.
