Oh god yes, you can modify it in the registry (or you used to be able to) but then the date/time gets fucked up. I hate W11 so much
I like w11, i just hate the taskbar
I couldn't get past the Taskbar long enough to not hate it unfortunately. I also missed quicklinks, which I use a lot.
What're quick links?
Sorry, it's Quicklaunch.

I have my most used applications there so I never have to hit the start button.
Doesn't pinned apps on the taskbar work for that same use case? I've just used that instead since Windows 7
Similarly but not quite. I also have stuff pinned, but the quick launch also allows you to have a menu that you can open with a list of apps too. The icons are also much closer together, so in the space of 5 pinned icons, I can have 11 quick launch icons.
Fair enough
