Windows 11's New 'Never Combine' Icons Feature Is Almost Unusable (bleepingcomputer.com) 121
Lawrence Abrams writes via BleepingComputer: After almost three years, Microsoft has finally added the 'Never combine taskbar button' back to Windows, and it still doesn't work correctly. The combine taskbar items feature in Windows 10 allows you to show an icon for every open application in Windows, even if they are multiple instances of the same application. For example, if you have ten instances of Notepad or a few browser windows open, the feature will allow you to see an icon on the taskbar for each open Windows rather than combining it into a single application icon.
For me and many others, removing this feature made it impossible to upgrade to Windows 11, as switching between the myriad open windows became a nightmare. This frustration is reflected in the Windows 11 Feedback Hub, where a suggestion to never combine app icons and show labels has received 17,527 upvotes, making it the 10th most requested feature. Today, those users who have been holding off on upgrading to Windows 11 because of this missing feature "may" finally be able to do so. This is because Microsoft finally released the "never combine" feature as part of its Windows 11 22H2 Moment 4 update released today.
However, even with this feature added, it is still subpar to Windows 10, as, unlike the previous version of Windows, it continues to show the windows titles next to the icon, taking up a lot of space. It's baffling that Microsoft can't get this feature right after three years with it being one of the most highly requested features. A simple toggle to disable the showing of Windows titles could have been added, or Microsoft could have replicated the Windows 10 feature many of us requested.

Actually, the author of TFA is deranged: he wants individual icons but no labels on his taskbar. That's what the article is about. (Which is sort of amazing since he gives the example of having 10 Notepad windows open at once, which are indistinguishable when they're all just iconized...)
The feature as implemented works as intended, which is to say it works the way anyone who's ever used Windows 95 or fvwm95 would expect.
Re:Agreed (Score:5, Informative)
Not quite. What he's complaining about is that though the tiles are separated and the title shows, the title is next to the icon, not above it. Look at the two pictures in the article. In the first, the icons are separated and the title is at the top. In the "new and improved" version in Windows 11, the title sits to the right of the icon, thus making each icon bigger and using up more space on the taskbar.
I know what he's talking about because I always have my windows separated, even with multiple from the same program. With the titles above the icon you can easily have a dozen windows open and still be able to see what they are because the title is visible. With this new iteration, you get fewer windows in the same space AND the title is not as easily discernible.
Not sure why Microsoft is having such a difficult time with this considering they already have the code from the past ten operating systems. It should (almost) be as easy as copy and paste.

The first picture is the default behavior since at least Windows 7 (maybe Vista, but I never used that). Duplicate icons collapsed and hovering over one gives you a preview of all the open windows. The Win11 behavior does look like a regression tho, as those previews are significantly smaller than the previews I get on Win10.

The first image shows a preview pop-up—the existing behaviour that was introduced in Windows 7 and became mandatory in previous Windows 11 versions. The previews are good, but having to wait for the pop-up window to appear in order to select one window from a multi-window application is annoying. Everyone agrees on this.
The author specifically states that he wants the labels completely gone (emphasis added):
What TFA wants isn't an option in my Windows 10 settings, either, despite what he claims; I think it might have existed in Windows 7 (and earlier 10 builds?), but it doesn't exist now. I'm guessing he's in a very small minority of people who ever used it this way.
That said, if I recall my old registry black magic correctly, the maximum taskbar button width used to be based on the size of the caption bar for iconified windows; a remnant from early builds of Windows Chicago [toastytech.com] when programs still minimized to the desktop (something similar can still be occasionally encountered in MDI applications or when Explorer crashes). The setting should be somewhere in HKCU\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics, but I don't see anything that looks like a likely candidate; must've been removed at some point. Back in the days of NT 4, I distinctly remember using taskbar buttons that were extra-wide, just for the novelty.

The item in XFCE relevant to this story is the "windows buttons" widget. I can put as many of these as I want on my desktop in as many taskbars as I want (even multiple button sets in the same taskbar), and I can independently control the grouping of each set (I just tried it, and I can have both grouped and ungrouped windows at the same time.) I have similar options for start menus, clocks, notification areas, etc., and all taskbars can be placed and configured exactly how and where I want them.
This isn't exactly rocket science. It's likely that the nicely usable XFCE windows button widget was written by a volunteer contributor with just a few weeks' effort.
