In a shock move from nowhere, it seems Microsoft is finally giving Windows 11 users the ability to configure the right-click menu

Microsoft is enhancing Windows 11's right-click menu based on user feedback, aiming to make it faster and simpler by reducing the number of initial entries displayed. Users will have the ability to customize the context menu to show their most frequently used options. This initiative is part of a broader effort to improve Windows 11, which includes plans to revamp the Start menu for greater customization.

Microsoft announces plans to let you put the taskbar in Windows 11 pretty much anywhere you want

Microsoft is enhancing Windows 11 by improving the configurability of the taskbar and Start menu. Users can now position the taskbar on any edge of the desktop and align the Start button and icons in various configurations. A vertical taskbar option is available in slim or wider variants, and a thinner taskbar is designed for lower resolution displays. The Start menu will feature section-level toggles to show or hide Pinned, Recommended, and All sections, along with options to adjust its size and conceal personal information. The Recommended section will be rebranded as Recent, with improved accuracy in displaying recently installed applications and files. These updates will first be rolled out to Windows Insiders in the Experimental channel over the coming weeks, with a public release expected in the next few months.
