Windows 11 Home - 22H2
I suspect not every feature in Windows 10 are in Windows 11 yet. It is a development code version and it's far from being ready.

Yeah I noticed that too! It'll either be fixed so someone will find a registry hack.

They better give us this option. This is annoying as heck! I've done everything I know how to do to and I can't get it to work either. . lol
Man this is driving me nuts. I know some people use Windows since Windows 7 this way with the taksbar icons grouped but I cannot for the life of me get used to this. I usually have many explorer Windows open and now I have to click twice and choose which folder I want to instead of just one click directly to the Window I want!

Yeah i agree! So annoying. I've played with the registry settings, Group Policy Editor, and nothing works.

Windows 11 22H2 Current build
I have a feeling they're testing stuff, and things are going to change in the next several builds.

I just wish they would let the end user pick what they want how they want and back to F off from forcing things on us....

But seeing as I've had that exact same pip dream for Windows for almost 30 years, now ....
