6.) Prefer to use small taskbars or large ones on Windows 11?

The decision between a small or a large taskbar on Windows 11 depends on the user's individual preferences and requirements. Here are some considerations that can help you decide:

Small taskbar:

1. Space-saving:

A small taskbar can free up more screen space for other applications and windows, which is especially useful if you use many applications at the same time.

2. Discreet:

A small taskbar can look less dominant on the screen and provide a cleaner, less distracting interface.

3. Faster access to windows:

Reducing the height of the taskbar allows more windows to be visible at the same time, making it easier to access different applications quickly.

Large taskbar:

1. Better readability:

A larger taskbar can improve the readability of text and icons, especially for users with visual impairments or poorer vision.

2. Easier touch operation:

On touchscreen devices, a larger taskbar can make it easier to use because larger buttons are easier to hit.

3. More space for notifications:

A larger taskbar provides more space for notification icons and text, which can improve information efficiency.



Ultimately, the choice between a small and a large taskbar depends on your personal preferences and usage habits. If you like to have more space on your screen and prefer a minimalist interface, a small taskbar might be a better option. However, if you value improved readability and easier operation, a larger taskbar might be more suitable. It can also be helpful to try both options and see which one suits your work style better.
