Microsoft is rolling out new Windows 11 taskbar and Start menu personalization features to Windows Insiders in the Experimental channel. Key additions include the ability to position the taskbar on any screen edge (top, bottom, left, or right) with configurable icon alignment, a compact smaller taskbar option, and improved Start menu controls. Start menu changes include section-level toggles to independently show or hide Pinned, Recommended, and All sections, a separate control for file recommendations, Start menu size settings, and the option to hide your name and profile picture. The 'Recommended' section is also being renamed to 'Recent' to better reflect its content. Some features like auto-hide, touch gestures for alternate positions, and per-monitor taskbar positions are still in progress.
