When I had a brief play with Win 11 in a VM I used Rufus to make the bootable USB and get rid of the online accounts and telemetry.

In windows 11 is there any way to show the progress of a transfer of a file from one folder to another in the taskbar like it use to on Win10?
Use to be handy to quick glance and see what the progress was and to open up the transfer window but now i have to hover over the window icon in taskbar before it loads the open window preview

Oh nice, didn't realise Rufus did it for you now - I've always used the shift F10 and then OOBE\BYPASSNRO method.

It still does this, if the progress dialogue is behind other windows, then you can glance at the taskbar tab for it as it is shaded with a green background acting as the progress bar:

Going from NVMe to NVMe it's usually 3.4/3.7 
Depends on how Windows feels that day

How did you make your transfer window black?It still does this, if the progress dialogue is behind other windows, then you can glance at the taskbar tab for it as it is shaded with a green background acting as the progress bar:

It has steadily updated to dark theme dialogues that would otherwise be white, even with system dark mode enabled.

Quite an amusing new feature name.

Could we collectively sue Microsoft when we aren't getting our damn postcode files???

Microsoft still haven't fixed the large file transfer overhead in Explorer. When copying or moving very large single files around, you can repeatedly encounter the phenomenon where the transfer dialogue simply pauses and Windows has a 5-7 second tea break then realises "oh yeah I was moving this file, back to work!":
Using FreeFyleSync (or any other tool for that matter that bypasses the Windows storage stack) does not see this issue:
Then, go back to Explorer and try doing the same again and suddenly it's all fine:

Yeah I suspect so, Defender is quite heavy handed with random actions like that.
On the one hand it is good it is doing stuff on the other hand one of the advantages it had over 3rd party AV was being relatively light in impact while being effective - recent updates it seems to just become more and more heavy handed.
