In the preview builds, users can only change the size of the taskbar by modifying the registry. If you want to change the taskbar size, you need to rely on three sizes: small, medium and large. This is no longer possible in Windows 11. In Windows 10, you can place your mouse at the top edge of the taskbar and simply drag it to resize. If you try to drag a file onto an app on the taskbar, it will not open in the highlighted application. Similarly, we can no longer drag and drop apps or shortcuts onto the taskbar. Microsoft officials have confirmed that the new modern operating system doesn’t allow users to drag and drop files onto the taskbar to open in another app. Drag-and-drop support and taskbar sizeĪs we reported recently, Windows 11 has also dropped support for drag-and-drop. In addition, you can also press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC to open Task Manager directly. While we’ll continue to use your feedback to guide the future of features like this, currently on Windows 11, you can right-click the Start menu button to quickly open the Task Manager.
Thank you so much for giving us your feedback. Microsoft responded to the feedback and confirmed that this is the new behaviour in Windows 11: This shortcut not only make absolute sense but removing it creates massive corporate cost. There is a massive decades-old legacy of internal corporate documentation that leverages the simple right-click on the taskbar to access the task manager to troubleshoot issues. As mentioned at the outset, Microsoft is removing the context menu (right-click menu) for the taskbar and users are clearly not happy.
