Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen sitinpeace for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, September 2 (Xinhua) earlier this year, Microsoft launched a taskbar for tablet users for Windows 11, but it was cancelled in Windows 11 Build 22610.

The taskbar is designed like Android or iOS, where users can swipe up the taskbar to expand it and launch pinned applications. When users slide up from the bottom of the tablet desktop, a wider taskbar appears with a large icon to help tablet users easily click on the icon.

What Microsoft said at the time was that, according to feedback from early testers, the effect was not ideal, so the feature would not return anytime soon. Four months later, however, the design came back.

According to information found by @ PhantomOfEarth, users can manually open a tablet UI on this taskbar in Windows 11 Dev preview version 25193 released today.

This setting is in the "taskbar behavior" under the Windows 11 taskbar settings, and when the user checks this option, the optimized taskbar, which is the UI mentioned above, will be automatically displayed in the tablet form.

To experience this setting, CTOnews.com partners need to use tools to turn it on manually. It is not recommended to test on the mainframe. There may be instability.

Download Vive Tool from the GitHub repository

Extract the Vive Tool file to a directory

Start the Windows terminal as an administrator and switch to the command prompt

Use the CD command to navigate to the folder of Vive Tool. For example, CD C:\ Vive

Enter vivetool / enable / id:26008830 and press enter

Restart the computer

You can type vivetool / disable / id:26008830 if you want to turn it off.

In addition, when this feature is turned on, a new taskbar will appear to start the animation.
