Andy Young, an ex-Microsoft senior software engineer, posted a message on X/Twitter bemoaning that even with his $1,600 Core i9 CPU and 128 GB of RAM, Windows...
What sort of toolbar do you mean? Actually curious because I just use my taskbar for shortcuts and the number that minimize to the system tray. I’ve been wondering about other uses it could have. I will Google it too but always nice to have random people’s uses as well. Have a Linux vm setup through hyper v and been trying to learn more.
You have been able to add a toolbar to the taskbar in many previous versions of Windows. I believe it used to be even more robust back in XP, and maybe earlier. In Windows 10 that I am using, you can right click the taskbar and there is a toolbars option at the top of the list. I created one that points to a folder of folders, that all contain numerous shortcuts, many of which I’ve been able to bring across multiple computers and versions of Windows rather easily. So far, in Windows 11, it looks to me like pins and simply loading up the taskbar with shortcuts is inefficient as well as very messy. Maybe I need more time with Windows 11. I hope they change some things back or add the capability.
You can’t even put a toolbar on the taskbar. Wtf
Not really a performance thing, but still.
