Moving the Start button is one small win, but you'll still see the Windows 11 Start menu when you click it. After downloading and installing the app, select the Remastered 7 option in the Welcome section. This will reinstate the Windows 7 Start menu and taskbar instantly, but you can customise things further by working your way through the Start Menu , Taskbar , Explorer and Advanced sections of the app.
In the Start Menu section you can choose which shortcuts can be displayed in the menu, as well as opting to add fly-out menus for many items. In the Taskbar section, you can customise the appearance of the Start button and other elements of the taskbar.
You can combine elements of Windows 11 and 7 by deselecting the Use enhanced classic jumplists to retain the more modern menu when you right-click on taskbar button.
There are further options in the Explorer section including the Classic context menu setting that lets you choose between old and new style right-click menus throughout Windows The move away from the Control Panel has been underway for some time now, with Microsoft encouraging you to use the Settings app whenever possible.

It's great to customize your desktop with a photo you have taken or another image you love. But if you're looking to take a trip down memory lane even further, you could reinstate the default Windows 7 wallpaper. This helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program in Windows. You may also troubleshoot or determine what conflict is causing the problem by performing a clean boot. Note: I also suggest you to install all the pending updates and check if the issue persists.

A Microsoft support rep was trying to help me in navigating the new Windows 10 operating system. There were 2 search areas in the taskbar when I started my new computer. He removed one of them, and several other items were removed from the taskbar. I'm not really sure what's missing.
And that why I want to restore it to how it looked on Monday, May 9th. He made the changes on Tuesday, May 10th. I'm more than a little confused with all of the options you gave me and not sure if any of them will restore the taskbar. You suggested that I install all the pending updates. Where are they?

You can do it from Start or the Jump List, which is a list of shortcuts to recently opened files, folders, and websites.

Locking the taskbar is handy to make sure it remains how you set it up. Unlock the taskbar later when you want to make changes or change its location on the desktop. Select Taskbar settings and turn on Lock the taskbar. To turn it off, under Lock the taskbar set the toggle to Off. If you have multiple monitors that display the taskbar, you'll see Lock all taskbars.

See the Lock and unlock the taskbar section to find out if yours is locked. When you've confirmed that your taskbar is unlocked, you can change its location. Browse All News Articles.
