Recently Microsoft has reportedly started rolling out Windows 11 updates for some unsupported Windows 10 systems. Today we will know about the features of the new taskbar included in it.

Windows 11 Taskbar
The latest Windows operating systems include a new taskbar, which is centered like macOS. Apart from customizing the taskbar, Windows 11 users can also repurpose new tools for other tasks. Today we will tell here about some features which are available for Windows 11 taskbar. Let's get started.

Shift taskbar icons to the left
The centrally placed taskbar icons are one of the major visual overhauls in Windows 11. The Start menu is central by default with apps pinned to the taskbar. In such a situation, if you want the old taskbar to be on the left, then you can change it by following some simple steps.

To change this, users need to go to the 'Personalization' section in the 'Settings' menu, where they can find the 'Taskbar Behaviour' option in the 'Taskbar' segment. Here you have to opt for the 'Left' toggle in the 'Taskbar Alignment' option to push the taskbar icons to the left.

Hide taskbar
Windows 11 users can hide the entire taskbar to increase the screen of real estate. To get back the hidden taskbar, users just have to move their mouse cursor to the edge of the screen. Users can also hide the taskbar on the secondary monitor. To hide the taskbar, you need to go to the 'Personalization' section in the 'Settings' menu.

Go to the lost active window
Windows of the same app are placed together in the Windows 11 taskbar. To preview these windows, the user can click on the taskbar icon or hover the mouse over it. If users want to open it, they have to click on the preview which can be annoying. In case they need to frequently switch between windows, in such cases, they can hold down the Ctrl key while clicking on the taskbar icon to quickly open the last active window from the app.

Drag and drop files on the taskbar
Users can drag and drop files into apps pinned to the taskbar. Suppose you need to open an image downloaded from Google Chrome in Photoshop, you can drag the file from the browser's download page and hover over the Photoshop icon in the taskbar. Doing so will open Photoshop and users can drop images into the app.

Weather update on the taskbar
Windows 11 initially had a 'Widgets' button on the taskbar, placed to the right of the Start button. Now, the Widget button shows the current weather on your taskbar. The taskbar weather icon also provides a summary of other information such as temperature and conditions.
