Summary
Microsoft is testing a new Windows 11 taskbar feature that allows users to shrink the taskbar size, restoring a capability that existed in Windows 10 but was removed when Microsoft rewrote the taskbar from scratch for Windows 11. The update offers two ways to reduce taskbar size: one that shrinks everything including icons, and another that only shrinks the icons themselves. This is part of Microsoft's broader effort to bring back popular Windows 10 features to Windows 11, potentially making it a superior OS.
