This is the absolute dumbest excuse. Unless they have moved to a UI framework that just can't deal with dynamic window sizes, which would be fucking bonkers.

They can barely get the Taskbar to function on the bottom; in the last month I've seen the Start Window get stuck at 4x the size, open in the wrong place (either side instead of the center), open halfway below the Taskbar, the pinned icons change their clickable positions, the Taskbar stop updating and so on.

If you cant do the things you could do in Windows 98, there are some real problems
>>
>>107609703
XP couldn't do things 98 could - in 98 you could add custom backgrounds for each folder, like a wallpaper for your folder.
7 couldn't do things XP could - in XP you could choose not to arrange the icons in a folder along a grid or alphabetically and just throw them around, or still have them on a grid just in an arbitrary order, 7 removed that feature and you had to patch explorer to return it.
There are probably a lot more examples I can think of, but I was really upset at the time because I used those features and liked them.

No, that'd be 7. It already has a lot of bloat but at least the NT kernel is still good. The userland is okay too. XP being effectively 2003 with some bells and whistles is as far as you need to go, but then its 64 bit version has backwards compatibility problems (just like 2003, unsurprisingly) and its 32 bit version cannot address more than 3.2 GB of RAM.

This is what I assume for all products/things; power users don't need their hands held and so you hear from them far less.
A user that needs help is more likely to interact with the "community" which includes a large portion of people who either don't want (or even feel the need) to turn off telemetry and thus skewing the "data" these companies collect and mistakenly act upon.
Additionally beginner/unknowledgable users are more likely to assume that they are the first to experience whatever issue they have and/or overestimate the severity of their bug report/issue; causing them to be even more likely to connect with Microsoft (or whoever/whatever for any product/service really) and this includes seeking reasurance which makes them even MORE likely to interact with the community.
This is what happens when you fire all your testers and just have the general public just test your software on the fly. Without people who know what they're doing you're left with a mountain of unreliable jibberish spat out at you either by unknowledgable users or utterly cryptic automated bug reports that either contain too much or too little information to be of any use.
It's why I suspect they really wanted Windows Recall to also be a thing. If the user breaks something just rewind to 20 minutes beforehand, y'know?

Windows is only 8% of Microsoft's revenue and that figure keeps shrinking. When the company wants to be rid of someone due to being a poor performer, they transfer them to Windows. The result is Windows 11 and stupid shit like the task bar being stuck. I bet at least half of the people working on Windows are on a PIP.

Windows features, as in actually beneficial things the OS can do and are appropriate for an OS to BE doing, have been frozen for several generations now. There's almost fuck all Windows 11 does that Windows 7 couldn't do, in terms of things a user would find beneficial.

In the time that has been happening, the once-capable teams behind its development have slid over into being full of diversity hires, jeets, and lifers. The talent is GONE. Retired, moved on, whatever. It's not coming back, either.

So aside from all the actively negative 'features' we've seen slide into Windows more over time (such as telemetry, advertising, bloatware extras, online accounts as a requirement, cloud dependencies) you're now also going to see active regressions of useful features. Like this.

And it's going to keep getting worse and worse because it's regression towards the mean. Windows has such a massive market share (not purely because it's 'better' than other OS', it's more dominant for a host of reasons, largely historical) that there is a long, long way for it to degrade before there will be any urgency to try and fight it's fall.

I just skimmed through this thread. Is what OP is saying actually true? I've been a "taskbar on top"-guy for 20 years. During the 2000's, there was a period of time when I was using a Mac Mini and having the taskbar on top just stuck with me. Later when I built a gaming PC I'd put the Windows XP and Windows 7 taskbar on top. I'm on Linux Mint right now with my taskbar on top and have taskbar on top on my Windows 10-secondary PC. I'm glad I left Windows because I would be going absolutely bonkers if I actually installed Windows 11 and was unable to move the taskbar to the top.

That's on track for how Windows 11 is going.

The first time I installed Windows 95, I saw you could move the taskbar around and it just made more sense to me to put it on top for some reason. I've had the taskbar on top for almost 30 years.

I was really pissed when I saw they removed that in Windows 11. What a dumb fucking thing to do for such a terribly simple feature.

Now I know that the reason they removed this feature that's been present for 30 is because it's too just too hard. Maybe I've been to harsh on those resourceful workers.

But then again, I just installed ExplorerPatcher and now I can move the taskbar on top.

Should I contact Microsoft and tell them that someone found the way to make it possible so their programmers can learn?

7 added the completely new taskbar with its own context menus, forced joining, etc. If you want to for ex. right click a task, and move the cursor 2 pixels top right and hit close, you can't - the new context menu comes out slower, positioned differently, has large border/margins, and has different entries so "close" may not even be the bottom most entry.

Luckily you can restore all of that with 7+ Taskbar Tweaker, make it function the same as basically Win98.

10 was an attempt at modernizing Windows 7 but it took them several years and they just couldn't finish it. There are still entries in Control Panel like "Backup & Restore (Windows 7)" because that's way too much to be fucked with.

If you block the telemetry then Windows 10 is... mostly acceptable. But yeah, 7 was the last version that was actually *good*.

The way it is going, adding the taskbar into 12.1 will be too difficult for them to do.

linux power user here, sorry im too dumb to run startisback i type sudo install startisback in the terminal and it did not work where is the documentation to compile it myself??
>>
>>107608327 (OP)

Sure it can be real. Like lots of things in life, newer isn’t always better. There’s a reason why yesterday’s notepad and task manager consumed way less resources. I miss the taskbar on top option a ton but even in windows 10 it wasn’t working quite right with apps that drew their windows in at 0,0.

Saar, when I tell the React native to do the moving the task bar to the above of the screen, it made 300 lines of console error. I say to ChatGPT, I say ChatGPT saar, help me saar, here is error, this is what it say, say ChatGPT: Context Too Long.

Bug not fixable saar, I try everything

It's looking like their next version will have to be a complete rewrite. And it's hilarious how they're functionally incapable of doing it at this point as an organization.

I remember in XP I added album art to all my music folders so the Explorer folder view showed the album covers. I got to about 200 or 300 and Windows flipped out and scrambled ALL of my folder images (not just the music ones, ALL of my folders on the system). It was wild, and to this day I think there's still metadata remnants in some of the folders. Jellyfin etc will now and then show some random image associated with an album.

Point is, MS has always been shit but at least they tried neat things and weren't afraid of screwing up.

Win11 is a shamefull mess of AI code and shoddy pajeet code. I will NEVER use it, and I'd rather return to Win7 or even jump to troonix than ever touch that shit.
>>
>>107610444
>because it's so customizable for power users
No that's not the argument. The argument is it's more customizable for anyone. It's 2025 any retard can do all kinds of things with KDE Plasma (the desktop that's basically just better Windows at this point) from the GUI in a couple clicks, and those features are built in and don't require searching for any external tools. That includes adjusting the length, size, position, number of bars, etc. of the task bar. You just right click the thing and edit.

They lie. I'm sure their "research" also shows people really wanted to replace basic Notepad with a nu-notepad shitted up with "AI".

A full set of the Debian distribution on 6 Blu-Rays is what I would take with me if I were sent to prison with a laptop but no permission to use the internet:
https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/amd64/jigdo-bd/

Meanwhile you literally cannot even activate Windows without going online.

wtf were they thinking.
At least there's still edit.exe, which is what I use now when I'm forced to use a windows machine

It's too hard for 70IQ jeets. Nutella has destroyed the company.

The overuse of shitty webtech is classic jeetification of software. Saw this in 3 different companies. It's becoming increasingly common in mobile now too.
>>
>>107608327 (OP)
You couldn't even move the clock from the right to the left without moving the taskbar for its entire history of existence (before the jeets)

Saaar please redeem the Microsoft account before continuing your Windows installation!!
