What Changes Have You Made To Windows 11 To Make It More Like Windows 10?

[Rocky-Roader]

I didn't switch to Windows 10 until about 4 years ago as I liked Windows 7 and it was fine for what I needed it for.

This time around I've upgraded to Windows 11 and there are some things that are not for me.

So far I have changed the 'right click menu' as there were too many options on it.

I have also changed the default photo opener to Windows Photo Viewer as it loads faster and I can scroll through with the left and right arrows on the keyboard quicker when browsing my eBay item photos.

Not to mention the built in options to put the start menu back on the left.

I was wondering what changes others may have made to give it a better look and feel to suit them?

Start Menu back on the left, disabled using Print screen key to open screen capture (accessibility settings), restored right click context menus, restored Image Preview on the context menu for images (though it doesn't work in 11 as well as 10), bunch of other stuff I can't remember off the top of my head.

I used Explorer Patcher.

Gave me quick launch back, Windows 10 start menu and right click menus etc

At first I moved the start menu back to the left, but then forgot to change it on one of my machines and left it in the middle. I got used to it in the end and moved all my machines back to the middle.

Start menu on left and nothing else.

Call me a cynic, but I remember people trying to make Vista more like XP, 8 more like 7, and now 11 more like 10.

It feels to me like it's easier to just roll with it and stop fighting the changes, but probably not a popular opinion!
