MS Returning Task Bar Functionality to W11

Start11 gave it back first - so thanks, Stardock! And thanks for 21 years.

Published on April 21, 2023 By DrJBHL In Personal Computing

MS should never have changed W10's task bar in W11. The fact they did helped prevent me from transiting to W11 long before I did.

The main reasons I did adopt W11 was WB11 and Start11. It's time to make my manners with a large "Thank you, Brad and Stardock!".

Now, something more personal.

It was this month, 21 years ago that I joined as a member. I've never regretted that decision. My life and desktop have never been ordinary since.

Which brings me to the second reason for this post: My thank you to you all for the many wonderful, thoughtful, good, funny people I met during those 21 years, and how we've shared our lives in many different ways. I remember those who are no longer with us...Xiandi, DaveBax, Angus (Ed), HG_E, ShelbyGT, Uvah and others. Hell, I still hope Uvah and his laptop pop up out of nowhere.

So, just saying thanks to everyone for the good times that made up those years with my "other family". You all.

Danke schön, Carl. Vielen Dank für Deine freundlichen und großzügigen Worte. I had to look up "generous", btw.

I hope my high school German doesn't cause misunderstandings. You're welcome...immer.
