How to customize the Taskbar and Start Menu interface of Windows 11 to resemble Windows 10?
Yes, Windows 11’s Taskbar and Start Menu is one of Microsoft’s great innovations. That’s my personal opinion
However, there will be people who do not like it because they are simply too familiar with the interface of Windows 10. So the question is is there a way to change?
Of course yes if you don’t want the Taskbar to center the icons and you want to change the interface of the Start Menu on Windows 11 because it’s difficult to use, that’s fine, you can refer to the article below. Please.
#first. How to bring the icons on the Windows 11 Taskbar to the left
+ Step 1: Right-click on the Taskbar => then click select Taskbar Settings.
+ Step 2: The Settings window appears, click on the Taskbar behaviors => then in the Taskbar alignment from Center you reset to Left done.
So the icons in the Taskbar have been moved to the left. The interface is familiar like previous versions of Windows
NOTE: There will be no preset in Windows Setting, so we will edit the Registry, so please back up the Registry before doing so that if you make a mistake, you can restore it.
+ Step 1: Press the key combination Windows + R to start the Run dialog => then enter the command regedit => and press OK to perform.
+ Step 2: When the Registry Editor window appears, go to the following path:
