Over three years later, many of these concerns continue to gain traction on the Feedback Hub, amassing considerable support. Below are the top five requested features by users of Windows 11 as gathered from the Microsoft Feedback Hub.<\/p>\n<h2>Top Feature Requests in Windows 11<\/h2>\n<h3>Taskbar Relocation Flexibility<\/h3>\n<p>Currently, the taskbar is fixed at the bottom of the screen, limiting user customization. Many users are calling for the option to relocate the taskbar to the top or sides of the screen. This feedback has garnered over 24,000 votes and 2,000 comments\u2014interest that has remained steady since the initial rollout of Windows 11. Unfortunately, Microsoft has not addressed this request, leading some users to question the commitment to improve the taskbar functionality.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center\">\n<figure class=\"image\" style=\"display:inline-block\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"No option to change taskbar position\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/trustcrypt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/five-essential-features-windows-11-users-desire-to-reintroduce-1.jpg\" width=\"868\"><figcaption><strong>No option to change taskbar position<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Removal of the Recommended Section in the Start Menu<\/h3>\n<p>The second most requested feature, with around 17,500 votes, is the ability to disable the Recommended section in the Start menu. Users have expressed dissatisfaction with this feature, which they feel clutters the Start menu with recent applications and files that are accessible via File Explorer. Despite rising concerns, Microsoft has only offered partial solutions rather than a complete removal option.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center\">\n<figure class=\"image\" style=\"display:inline-block\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Start menu\" height=\"650\" src=\"https:\/\/trustcrypt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/five-essential-features-windows-11-users-desire-to-reintroduce-2.jpg\" width=\"868\"><figcaption><strong>Start menu personalization settings<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Search Provider Preference in Windows Search<\/h3>\n<p>A significant request from users is the ability for Windows search to utilize their preferred search engines instead of defaulting to Bing. This proposal has accumulated over 11,000 votes. While users in the European Economic Area have seen regulatory compliance allowing for browser choice, similar functionalities outside this region remain unaddressed by Microsoft.<\/p>\n<h3>Reduction of CPU\/Processor Requirements<\/h3>\n<p>The hardware requirements for Windows 11 have sparked significant frustration, with over 8,400 users calling for a reduction in CPU or processor specifications. Many users feel that their modern, capable PCs should be able to support the new operating system despite not meeting the stringent requirements set by Microsoft.<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center\">\n<figure class=\"image\" style=\"display:inline-block\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Windows 11 TPM requirement\" height=\"366\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"521\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bleepstatic.com\/images\/news\/Microsoft\/windows-11\/t\/tpm-requirement\/tpm-2_0-required.jpg\" class=\"b-lazy\"><figcaption><strong>Windows 11 TPM requirement<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Support for Taskbar Customizations<\/h3>\n<p>Users also desire improvements to taskbar features, specifically the ability to prevent the combination of app icons and hide labels. Although Windows 11 provides a &#8220;never-combine&#8221; mode, it has been criticized as incomplete. The taskbar can become cluttered when multiple applications are open, thus reducing usability. Feedback reflecting similar sentiments continues to flood the Feedback Hub.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Never combine taskbar buttons setting\" height=\"650\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"1061\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bleepstatic.com\/images\/news\/Microsoft\/windows-11\/n\/never-combine-stable\/never-combine-settings.jpg\" class=\"b-lazy\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Taskbar\" height=\"88\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" width=\"1300\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.bleepstatic.com\/images\/news\/u\/1097497\/Windows%2011\/Taskbar-never-combine(1).jpg\" class=\"b-lazy\"><\/p>\n<p>These five requests represent a significant portion of user feedback on Windows 11, accounting for over 75,000 votes collectively. Regular comments highlight ongoing user enthusiasm for improvements, raising the question of whether Microsoft will heed these requests in future updates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since the launch of Windows 11, numerous long-time users have expressed concerns regarding the removal of features they valued.
