• Things that annoy me – Windows 11 edition

    Posted on April 29, 2022 at 21:56 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    You can tell that Microsoft is starting to react to some of the feedback on Windows 11, well at least their Enterprise customers.  In the Insider release comes new group policies:

    What’s new in Build 22610
    Additional new MDM and group policies for IT administrators
    We are introducing new policies so that IT administrators can simplify their Windows 11 experience across Start, taskbar, and the system tray. The following policies are available today:

    Disable Quick Settings flyout
    Disable Notification Center and calendar flyouts
    Disable all taskbar settings
    Disable search (across Start & taskbar)
    Hide Task View from taskbar
    Block customization of ‘Pinned’ in Start
    Hide ‘Recommended’ in Start
    Disable Start context menus
    Hide ‘All apps’ in Start
    To configure these new group policies locally, open the group policy editor and navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Taskbar. You can also deploy these policies via Microsoft Endpoint Manager as well.

    Let me know if you want any of these options in registry keys?  As typically if you can do it via group policy, you can also do it via a registry key in Home versions.

    You know what slows me down in Windows 11 the most?  The Cut and paste function in the File explorer.  It’s now hidden in the “show more options” section of the right mouse click

    Once you click on “show more options” then you see copy and paste.  Now yes, I can do control C and Control V, but that typically means I have to move my fingers off my mouse and over to the keyboard.
