The auto hide and lock feature of the taskbar is still present, as in the older version of Windows. To customize the taskbar buttons, the default mode of the taskbar buttons is now always Grouped and Hiding Program Names / Captions, and you can still configure Grouping when the taskbar is full and displays program names or captions.
