Neither Windows 11 nor Start11 offer the Taskbar Toolbar feature. There are however, some third party apps which create a Taskbar toolbar in Windows 11. No disrespect, but isn't that what the start menu is for. You can create those same groups in the Start11 menu -- assuming you use the windows 10 or Windows 11 Styles -- and access them with fewer clicks than with a taskbar toolbar. Just sayin'.

Try this: 1) Go to the Windows 11 Desktop Icon Settings and untick Recycle Bin. This will remove the Recycle Bin from your Desktop. 2) Now go to the Desktop Folder and right click the Recycle Bin and choose Pin to Start. If you have "Synchronize pinned items from the OS menu with Start11" turned on, skip steps 3 and 4. 3) Next go to C:\Users\"your User Name"\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs <

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="1" id="3882116"] Could you give us a screen shot of what you're asking about? Start11 doesn't have the ability to do that as far as I know... [/quote] I think he is talking about the Power context menu which shows Shut down, Restart, etc.

[quote quoting="post"] I selected the"GEAR" because I had it on my other machine. WWhen I selected the "gear" cursor, the entire cursor was flickering and twice as large as the example. The enlargement is set at 1.00. what did I do wrong? I am running Windows 11. Thank you in advance. [/quote] I am running Windows 10 19045.2673 and all of the CursorFX animated cursors flicker for me whether they are new or old. This started about a year ago.

In the Windows 10 style, if you use the medium size or larger tiles, the name is included under the icon. The other option is to use the Windows 11 style which includes the name under the icon in the small size, although you lose the tile layout.

[quote who="d13531" reply="9" id="3879178"] Thanks for the idea. I will try that and let everyone know if it works. 👍 Edit: It didn't work...bummer. Edit #2: never mind, I got it to work! 😂 [/quote] Glad to hear you were able to make it work. I thought I had done that before. I don’t have my laptop with me, so I was unable to test it before I suggested it.

Try creating a new theme and then copy and paste the cursors from other themes that you want to use for your new theme. A little more difficult, but I think it will work. You might also have to recreate the settings in the right panel for the animated cursors.

Try turning off "Show recently opened items in Start, Jump Lists, and File Explorer" in the Windows settings and see if that accomplishes your desired effect. I know this works on Windows 10 with Start11 ver. 1.39, but have not tried it on Windows 11.
