It also provides status and notifications about things like incoming email, updates, and network connectivity.
The notification area is located at the right end of the taskbar. It contains icons you might find yourself selecting or pressing pretty often: battery, Wi-Fi, volume, Clock and Calendar, and action center. It provides status and notifications about things like incoming email, updates, and network connectivity.
Customize the taskbar from the taskbar itself. If you want to change multiple aspects of the taskbar at one time, use Taskbar settings. Press and hold (or right-click) any empty space on the taskbar, and then select Taskbar settings.
Search on the taskbar can be set in four ways: either to Search box, which includes a full text box to enter your search (or your Bing Chat prompt; see Using the new Bing on the Windows taskbar for more) into plus additional search highlights, Search icon and label (displaying as a search icon and Search label), Search icon only (just the icon) or Hide (completely hidden).
Press and hold (or right-click) any empty space on the taskbar, select Taskbar settings, select Taskbar behaviors, then choose Select the far corner of the taskbar to show the desktop.

You can hide the taskbar both in desktop mode and tablet mode. Press and hold (or right-click) any empty space on the taskbar, select Taskbar settings, select Taskbar behaviors, and select Automatically hide the taskbar.
When you disconnect or fold back the keyboard on your 2-in-1 device, you'll now see the tablet-optimized taskbar in the latest versions of Windows 11. This taskbar has two states: collapsed and expanded. In the collapsed state, the taskbar is minimized so you can focus on your task, but you can still see critical status icons like the time or battery level. When you need to use the taskbar, swipe up from the bottom to see the expanded state that has a touch-friendly design with larger icons. When you launch an app, the taskbar will automatically collapse again.
You can show seconds alongside hours and minutes in your system tray clock on the taskbar. Press and hold (or right-click) any empty space on the taskbar, then select Taskbar settings > Taskbar behaviors, and then check Show seconds in system tray clock.
Pin an app directly to the taskbar for quick access when you're on the desktop. (Or unpin it, if you want.) You can do it from Start or the Jump List, which is a list of shortcuts to recently opened files, folders, and websites.

Typically, the taskbar is at the bottom of the desktop, but you can also move it to either side or the top of the desktop. When the taskbar is unlocked, you can change its location. See the Lock and unlock the taskbar section to find out if yours is locked. When you've confirmed that your taskbar is unlocked, you can change its location.
Like many other changes in the taskbar, you'll need to first unlock the taskbar. Then, move the pointer over the border of the taskbar until the pointer turns into a double arrow. Drag the border to the size you want and release.
When taskbar is full. This setting shows each window as an individual, labeled button. When the taskbar becomes crowded, apps with multiple open windows collapse into a single app button. Select the button to see a list of the windows that are open.
Never. This setting shows each window as an individual, labeled button and never combines them, no matter how many windows are open. As more apps and windows open, buttons get smaller, and eventually the buttons will scroll.
Press and hold (or right-click) any empty space on the taskbar, select Taskbar settings , and then turn on Use Peek to preview the desktop when you move your mouse to the Show desktop button at the end of the taskbar.

Starting in Windows 10, version 1607, administrators can pin more apps to the taskbar and remove default pinned apps from the taskbar by adding a section to a layout modification XML file. This method never removes user-pinned apps from the taskbar.
You can specify different taskbar configurations based on device locale and region. There's no limit on the number of apps that you can pin. You specify apps using the Application User Model ID (AUMID) or Desktop Application Link Path (the local path to the application).
If you use a provisioning package or import-startlayout to configure the taskbar, your configuration will be reapplied each time the explorer.exe process restarts. If your configuration pins an app and the user then unpins that app, the user's change will be overwritten the next time the configuration is applied. To apply a taskbar configuration that allows users to make changes that will persist, apply your configuration by using Group Policy.
If you use Group Policy and your configuration only contains a taskbar layout, the default Windows tile layout will be applied and cannot be changed by users. If you use Group Policy and your configuration includes taskbar and a full Start layout, users can only make changes to the taskbar. If you use Group Policy and your configuration includes taskbar and a partial Start layout, users can make changes to the taskbar and to tile groups not defined in the partial Start layout.
The following example shows you how to configure taskbars by country or region. When the layout is applied to a computer, if there's no node with a region tag for the current region, the first node that has no specified region will be applied. When you specify one or more countries or regions in a node, the specified apps are pinned on computers configured for any of the specified countries or regions.
Is any one else having issues with Workspace App running on Windows 11? We have tried 2212 and 2203.2 Workspace App on our Windows 11 VDI image. When launching any Citrix Virtual App from Workspace App the right half the the Windows taskbar including running apps and most of the system tray becomes unresponsive until we close the Workspace App.
We are seeing this as well so far on physical machines. If you click on the open apps on the taskbar it will not bring that app forward, you can alt-tab to get to the apps. As soon as you close any open citrix app it works fine again. We are using workspace LTSR 2203 CU2. It seems to work alot better if you change the taskbar to left aligned versus center. We also have w365 cloud machines and when i test the same scenario we do not see the issue. I wasnt sure if this was a microsoft or citrix issue but leaning towards citrix but will start with a citrix ticket.
Came to say I'm seeing the exact same issue. Win11 VDA, running double-hop published application. Same issue with the taskbar. Running Workspace App 2203.3000 on my Win11 VDA, so even the new verison is still affected.
I am not sure if this question can be asked in this forum or not.
Recently I have noticed this, when I open postman tool in my computer, I am not seeing taskbar in the bottom.
I always has to minimize the tool to see other tabs in my computer.
And also I see only Minimize option, not maximize.
Is this like this since beginning ?
I just tried that. I have opened right now 30 windows. The button is reduced to the normal size it would have with no labels. Hovering the pointer over a window button displays a menu with all the page titles opened in the web browser.
When I use the "never combine" option, the text does hide when the task bar is getting full. So I just keep the taskbar full at all times, by keeping a number of Notepad instances running. Looks like this:
EDIT: My cousin made an "empty app" and all it does is run an empty app whose icon is just a dot, so it looks almost exactly as envisioned. U will need to run it multiple times to fill the taskbar. I've shared it zipped here. In case of concerns, do perform a virus scan.
It works fine if I use only one monitor or set the 2nd monitor as a clone. It then works as expected, that is when I maximize a window it goes up to the edge of the taskbar. How can I make it work like this using dual monitors?
I'm running plasma 5.6.5 with 3 screens attached.Everything is fine as long as the panel is horizontal - once I move this panel to the side, it stops reserving space for itself and allow windows to go under. I attached my display configuration - everything seems to be aligned there...
I have taskbars at the top and bottom of my primary monitor, and a secondary monitor with a higher vertical resolution than the primary. If the tops of my two monitors are aligned, then windows maximize properly. Otherwise, they maximize to the top of the screen, rather than the bottom of the top taskbar.
I've been trying to not let this get to me, but now it has become too annoying for me to not raise it. You see, the issue I have is that the Affinity Publisher icon on the taskbar is a completely different size to Affinity Designer and Photo. The icons are fine on the Start menu in Windows 11, so why are they different for the taskbar?
